| 7. Formal Translation And when they say to you, “Why are you groaning?” you shall answer, “Because of the report, for it is drawing near: every heart will dissolve, all hands will hang limp; every spirit will sink, and all knees will flow down like water. Look, it is coming, and it will surely take place,” declares the Lord GOD {Adonai Yahweh, Sovereign Master}. |
| 7. Dynamic Translation When they ask, “Why are you sighing?” you will say, “Because the news is on the way. Everyone’s courage will fail; every hand will lose its strength; each spirit will collapse; and knees will turn to water. See, it is coming, and it will happen,” says the Lord GOD {Adonai Yahweh, Supreme Ruler}. |
