King James Version (KJV)

Therefore said we, that it shall be, when they should {so} say to us or to our generations in time to come, that we may say {again}, Behold the pattern of the altar of the LORD, which our fathers made, not for burnt offerings, nor for sacrifices; but it {is} a witness between us and you.

Modern English

“Therefore we said, ‘It shall be, when they tell us or our generations this in time to come, that we shall say, “Behold the pattern of Yahweh’s altar, which our fathers made, not for burnt offering, nor for sacrifice; but it is a witness between us and you.”’
