Galatians 4:17 KJV

They zealously affect you, but not well; yea, they would exclude you, that ye might affect them.

Thou and Ye

  • you, ye more than one

In the King James Bible, thee, thou, thy, and thine always mean one person, and ye, you, and your more than one: a difference modern English lost. Why keep these words?
