7. Formal Translation And when the LORD {Yahweh, Merciful Judge} saw that they humbled themselves, the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah, saying, “They have humbled themselves; I will not destroy them, but I will give them a small measure of deliverance, and My wrath shall not be poured out on Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.” |
7. Dynamic Translation When the LORD {Yahweh, Compassionate Ruler} saw that they had humbled themselves, He sent this message to Shemaiah: “Since they have humbled themselves, I will not destroy them, but I will grant them some escape, and My anger will not be poured out on Jerusalem by Shishak’s hand.” |
