26. Formal Translation “Surely, the blood of Naboth and the blood of his sons—I saw it yesterday,” declares the LORD {Yahweh, Avenger of Innocent Blood}. “And I will repay you on this plot,” declares the LORD. “So now, lift him and throw him onto the plot, according to the word of the LORD.” |
26. Dynamic Translation “Yesterday, I saw Naboth’s blood and the blood of his sons,” says the LORD {Yahweh, Just Judge}. “I will make you pay for it here on this very field,” the LORD says. “Now pick him up and throw him on that plot exactly as the LORD’s word commands.” |
