# Therefore see
"Therefore, indeed." Here Yahweh begins speaking. The word "see" adds emphasis to what follows.
# I will cause them to know
Here the word "them" refers to the people from the nations. Yahweh repeats this phrase for emphasis.
# my hand and my power
Here the word "hand" refers to power and authority. The two phrases mean basically the same thing and emphasize Yahweh's great power. Alternate translation: "my great power" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-doublet]])
