6. Formal Translation They have seen falsehood and lying divination, those who say, “An utterance of the LORD {Yahweh, Divine Spokesman},” though the LORD has not sent them; yet they hope that the word will be confirmed. |
6. Dynamic Translation They claim to see emptiness and deceptive fortunes, saying, “The LORD {Yahweh, True Judge} declares this,” even though the LORD did not send them; still, they expect their message to be fulfilled. |
