9. Formal Translation Thus the LORD {Yahweh, Unyielding Judge} says: “Because of Tyre’s three transgressions, even four, I will not rescind it, because they handed over a complete exile to Edom and did not remember the covenant of brothers.” |
9. Dynamic Translation This is what the LORD {Yahweh, Impartial Ruler} says: “Tyre has piled up three rebellions—yes, four—and I will not take it back, because they handed an entire group of captives to Edom and ignored the brotherhood agreement.” |
