17. Formal Translation For a word has come to me by the word of the LORD {Yahweh, Divine Authority}, saying, “You shall not eat bread, and you shall not drink water there, nor shall you return to go by the way that you went.” |
17. Dynamic Translation Because I received this message from the LORD {Yahweh, Instruction Giver}: “You must not eat any bread or drink water there, and do not go back the same way you came.” |
