| 27. Formal Translation But if you do not listen to Me {Yahweh, Sovereign Judge} to sanctify the Sabbath day and do not carry a burden or enter through the gates of Jerusalem on that day, then I will kindle a fire in its gates, and it will devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it will not be quenched. |
| 27. Dynamic Translation But if you refuse to heed Me {Yahweh, Covenant Enforcer} and do not sanctify the Sabbath day but carry loads and enter through the gates of Jerusalem on the Sabbath, I will set fire to its gates, and it will burn up the palaces of Jerusalem and not be put out. |
