Acts 26:9

[gutdwala]

It seems fine to me, but a little awkward. I understood the meaning of
the sentence though. But if nothing like that is attested, I would
probably go with 'ei skuldedjau managa andaneiþona gataujan', it just
seems a little more clear. 

Does this mean that we're still working on filling in non-extant
portions of the translation? It's a little out there, but I've got a
few chapters of Enoch thrown together. I remember seeing some
reconstructed bits on some sites a few years ago, maybe Matthew
Carver's? Are those all in the files section or is that newer stuff?
