9. Formal Translation Her gates have sunk into the ground; He has ruined and snapped her bars. Her king and her princes are among the nations; the law is no more, and her prophets also find no vision from the LORD {Yahweh, Covenant Judge}. |
9. Dynamic Translation Her gates are buried in the earth; He has shattered and crushed her bars. Her king and her officials live among foreign nations; instruction is gone, and even her prophets receive no vision from the LORD {Yahweh, Divine Authority}. |
