For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches.
If the part of the dough offered as firstfruits is holy, then the whole batch is holy; if the root is holy, so are the branches.
Εἰ δὲ ἡ ἀπαρχὴ ἁγία, καὶ τὸ φύραμα· καὶ εἰ ἡ ῥίζα ἁγία, καὶ οἱ κλάδοι.
Ei de ē aparchē agia, kai to phyrama· kai ei ē riza agia, kai oi kladoi.
