1. Formal Translation I saw the Lord {Adonai, Sovereign Judge} stationed upon the altar, and He said, “Strike the pillar-cap so that the thresholds tremble; shatter them over the heads of all of them. And their remnant I will kill with the sword: the one who flees will not get away, and the survivor will not escape.” |
1. Dynamic Translation I saw the Lord {Adonai, Holy Inspector} by the altar, and He said, “Hit the top so the thresholds shake, and smash it down over everyone’s heads. I will kill those who remain with the sword; no one who runs will get away, and no survivor will escape.” |
