| 8. Formal Translation Now do not harden your necks as your fathers did; give your hand to the LORD {Yahweh, Covenant Restorer}, and come to His sanctuary which He has consecrated forever, and serve the LORD your God {Yahweh Eloheikhem, Divine Redeemer}, so that the fierceness of His anger may turn away from you. |
| 8. Dynamic Translation So now, do not be stubborn like your ancestors; instead, offer your hand to the LORD {Yahweh, Faithful Deliverer} and enter into His holy place, the one He set apart permanently. Worship the LORD your God {Yahweh Eloheikhem, Rescuer}, and then His burning anger will turn away from you. |
