Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(11) As I live.--The original has, "I have sworn by Myself," for which St. Paul, quoting from memory, substitutes another common Hebrew formula--"As I live," or, "by my life."Shall confess . . .--The Greek word is capable of two renderings--"confess" and "praise:" Most commentators prefer the latter, but it is not quite clear that the English version is wrong. That the word can bear this meaning is, especially in view of James 5:16, unquestionable, and the sense seems to agree better with the next verse.Parallel Commentaries ...GreekIt is written:γέγραπται (gegraptai)Verb - Perfect Indicative Middle or Passive - 3rd Person SingularStrong's 1125: A primary verb; to 'grave', especially to write; figuratively, to describe.“[As surely as] Iἐγώ (egō)Personal / Possessive Pronoun - Nominative 1st Person SingularStrong's 1473: I, the first-person pronoun.
