my tr text reads:
touv gar pantav hmav fanerwqhnai dei emprosqen tou
bhmatov tou cristou ina komishtai ekastov ta dia tou swmatov prov a
epraxen agaqon eite kakon
while my wh (which the na26 is from) text reads:
touv gar pantav hmav fanerwqhnai dei emprosqen tou bhmatov tou cristou ina
komishtai ekastov ta dia tou swmatov prov a epraxen eite agaqon eite
faulon
(sorry for the copy and paste)
notice that tr does not end with EITE AGAQON EITE KAKON, but just AGAQON
EITE KAKON.
