14. Formal Translation And Haggai answered and said, "So this people and this nation are before Me," declares the LORD {Yahweh, Covenant Judge}; and so every work of their hands is unclean; and whatever they offer there is unclean. |
14. Dynamic Translation Then Haggai replied, "This is how these people and this nation stand before Me," says the LORD {Yahweh, Righteous Evaluator}. Every action they perform with their own hands is defiled, and whatever they bring there as an offering is defiled. |
