19. Formal Translation And it shall be, when you say, “For what reason has the LORD our God {Yahweh Eloheinu, Covenant Judge} done all these things to us?” then you shall say to them, “Just as you have forsaken Me and served foreign gods in your own land, so you shall serve foreigners in a land that is not yours.” |
19. Dynamic Translation When you ask, “Why has the LORD our God {Yahweh Eloheinu, Righteous Ruler} done all this to us?” you must tell them, “Since you abandoned Me and worshiped other gods in your own country, you will now serve strangers in a land that does not belong to you.” |
