11. Formal Translation Thus says the LORD {Yahweh, Sentencing Judge}: For three rebellions of Edom, and for four, I will not turn it back, because he pursued his brother with the sword and destroyed his compassion; his anger kept tearing on, and he kept his wrath forever. |
11. Dynamic Translation This is what the LORD {Yahweh, Indicting Judge} declares: For three crimes of Edom, even for four, I will not revoke it, because he chased down his brother with the sword, wiped out all mercy, kept tearing in anger, and held on to his wrath without end. |
