| 28. Formal Translation Is this man Coniah {konyahu: shortened form of Jeconiah, last king of Judah} a despised, broken pot, or a vessel in which there is no delight? Why have they—he and his offspring—been cast out and thrown upon a land which they did not know? |
| 28. Dynamic Translation Is this man Coniah just a rejected, shattered pot, a container that no one wants? Why have Coniah and his children been cast out and thrust into a land they do not know? |
