Exegesis

The envoy’s rhetoric concludes with the divine citation YHWH and the promise yaṣṣîlēnû {יַצִּילֵנוּ | yaṣ-ṣî-lē-nû} ‘he will rescue us’, serving as the misleading assurance. The English translation retains this progression by segmenting the conditional promise, the descriptive triple, and the concluding admonition with reported speech.
