| 18. Formal Translation The sons of Israel were subdued in that time; the sons of Judah prevailed, because they leaned on the LORD {Yahweh, Battle Protector}, the God {Elohim, Covenant Rememberer} of their fathers. |
| 18. Dynamic Translation At that moment, Israel’s people were defeated, while Judah’s people grew strong, because they depended on the LORD {Yahweh, Victory-Giver}, the God {Elohim, Generational Keeper} of their fathers. |
