Print
And give doctors a place, because the Lord created them also, and don’t let them leave you, because you indeed need them.
For the Lord created him: and let him not depart from thee, for his works are necessary.
Then call the doctor—for the Lord created him—and keep him at your side; you need him.
Then give the doctor his place lest he leave; you need him too,
Then summon the physician—the Lord created him too— and do not let him leave you, for you need him at your side.
Then give the physician his place, for the Lord created him; do not let him leave you, for you need him.
Then give the physician his place, for the Lord created him; do not let him leave you, for you need him.
Then give the physician his place, for the Lord created him; do not let him leave you, for you need him.
Then give physicians their place, for the Lord created them; do not let them leave you, for you need them.
And give the physician his place, for the Lord created him; let him not leave you, for there is need of him.
And give the physician his place, for the Lord created him; let him not leave you, for there is need of him.
and give thou place to a leech (or to a physician). For the Lord made him, and depart he not from thee; for his works be needful to thee. [and give stead to the leech. Forsooth the Lord formed him, and go he not away from thee; for his works be needful.]
