52 Svědkem ať jest hromada tato, svědkem také sloup tento, já že nepůjdu dále k tobě za hromadu tuto, a ty tolikéž že nepůjdeš dále ke mně za hromadu tuto a sloup tento, k činění zlého.

4181. 'You would now have sent me away empty-handed' means that it would have claimed all things to itself. This is clear from the meaning of 'sending away empty-handed' as taking all things away from him, and so claiming all for itself.
