But I said, Not so, Lord: for nothing common or unclean hath at any time entered into my mouth.

But I said, Not so, Lord: for nothing common or unclean hath ever entered into my mouth.

And I said, In no wise, Lord, for common or unclean has never entered into my mouth.

and I said, Not so, Lord; because anything common or unclean hath at no time entered into my mouth;

"'On no account, Lord,' I replied, 'for nothing unholy or impure has ever gone into my mouth.'

But I said, No, Lord; for nothing common or unclean has ever come into my mouth.

But I said: 'Never, lord! For what is common or unclean has never entered into my mouth.'

'No, Lord, I cannot,' I answered, 'for nothing defiled or unclean has ever passed my lips.'

But I said, not so, Lord,.... For he took the voice he heard to be the voice of the Lord, and yet he was not obedient to the heavenly vision, and even though he was an hungry; which shows what a strict observer he was of the ceremonies of the law, and how much he was prejudiced in favour of them:
for nothing common or unclean hath at any time entered into my mouth; he had not suffered anything to come within his lips; he had not even tasted, and much less ate anything that was forbidden by the ceremonial law, so strictly had he observed it.
