| 9. Formal Translation For in your returning to the LORD {Yahweh, Gracious Restorer}, your brothers and your sons will find compassion before their captors and will return to this land, for the LORD your God {Yahweh Eloheichem, Covenant Protector} is gracious and compassionate. He will not turn away His face from you if you return to Him. |
| 9. Dynamic Translation If you turn back to the LORD {Yahweh, Merciful Redeemer}, your relatives and your children will receive mercy from those holding them captive and will come back to this land, for the LORD your God {Yahweh Eloheichem, Faithful Protector} is gracious and full of compassion. He will not hide His presence from you if you return to Him. |
