| 41 | and I acted with hostility toward them and brought them into the land of their enemies—and if their uncircumcised hearts will be humbled and they will make amends for their iniquity, | so that I walked contrary to them and brought them into the land of their enemies—if then their uncircumcised heart is humbled and they make amends for their iniquity, | which made me hostile toward them so that I sent them into the land of their enemies—then when their uncircumcised hearts are humbled and they pay for their sin, | |
| 42 | then I will remember My covenant with Jacob (he grasps the heel) and My covenant with Isaac (he laughs) and My covenant with Abraham (father of many), and I will remember the land. | then I will remember my covenant with Jacob, and I will remember my covenant with Isaac and my covenant with Abraham, and I will remember the land. | I will remember my covenant with Jacob and my covenant with Isaac and my covenant with Abraham, and I will remember the land. | |
| 43 | For the land will be abandoned by them, and it will enjoy its Sabbaths by lying desolate without them. And they will pay the penalty for their iniquity, because they rejected My ordinances and abhorred My statutes. | But the land shall be abandoned by them and enjoy its Sabbaths while it lies desolate without them, and they shall make amends for their iniquity, because they spurned my rules and their soul abhorred my statutes. | For the land will be deserted by them and will enjoy its sabbaths while it lies desolate without them. They will pay for their sins because they rejected my laws and abhorred my decrees. | |
| 44 | Yet in spite of this, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not reject or despise them so as to destroy them and break My covenant with them; for I am the LORD their God {YHWH Elohehem}. | Yet for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not spurn them, neither will I abhor them so as to destroy them utterly and break my covenant with them, for I am the LORD their God. | Yet in spite of this, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not reject them or abhor them so as to destroy them completely, breaking my covenant with them. I am the LORD their God. | |
| 45 | But for their sake I will remember the covenant with their fathers, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt (land of bondage) in the sight of the nations, that I might be their God {Elohim}. I am the LORD {YHWH}.” | But I will for their sake remember the covenant with their forefathers, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the nations, that I might be their God: I am the LORD.” | But for their sake I will remember the covenant with their ancestors whom I brought out of Egypt in the sight of the nations to be their God. I am the LORD.’” | |
| 46 | These are the statutes, ordinances, and laws that the LORD {YHWH} established between Himself and the Israelites (God prevails) through Moses (drawn out) on Mount Sinai (thorny). | These are the statutes and rules and laws that the LORD made between himself and the people of Israel through Moses on Mount Sinai. | These are the decrees, the laws and the regulations that the LORD established at Mount Sinai between himself and the Israelites through Moses. | |
