Je was op zoek naar: if i were free, i would accept his invitation (Engels - Baskisch)

now if i do that i would not, it is no more i that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
bada baldin cer nic nahi ezpaitut hura eguiten badut, eznaiz guehiagoric ni, hura eguiten dudana, baina nitan habitatzen den bekatua.

i told you before, and foretell you, as if i were present, the second time; and being absent now i write to them which heretofore have sinned, and to all other, that, if i come again, i will not spare:
aitzinetic erran vkan dut, eta berriz aitzinetic diot, present baninz beçala, eta absent naicelaric orain scribatzen drauet lehen bekatu eguin duteney, eta goitico guciey, ecen berriz banathor eztudala nehor guppida vkanen.
