# that I capture their stronghold
|
|
|
|
Here "stronghold" is a metaphor for the temple. Yahweh speaks of destroying the temple as if he were an army invading a fortified city. Alternate translation: "that I destroy their temple" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])

# stronghold, the joy of their splendor, and the delight of their eyes and the burden of their soul, their sons
|
|
|
|
"stronghold, which is the joy of their splendor, and the delight of their eyes and the burden of their soul, which are their sons"
|
|
|
|
# the joy of their splendor
|
|
|
|
"the splendor in which they take joy" or "the splendid building in which they take joy"
|
|
|
|
# the delight of their eyes
|
|
|
|
"the temple, which they love very much." See how you translated similar words in [Ezekiel 24:16](../24/16.md).

# the burden of their soul
|
|
|
|
Here the word "burden" is used in a good sense. "What they think most about" or "What they love the most." |
