This does not mean "at this moment," but is used to draw attention to the important point that follows.

# your bonds will be tightened
|
|
|
|
Yahweh punishing the people even more severely is spoken of as if he would tighten their bonds. This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "Yahweh will tighten your bonds" or "Yahweh will punish you even more severely" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])

# Yahweh of hosts
|
|
|
|
See how you translated this in [Isaiah 1:9](../01/09.md).

|
# a decree of destruction on the earth
|
|
|
|
This can be reworded so that the abstract noun "destruction" is expressed as the verb "destroy." Alternate translation: "that he is going to destroy people throughout the land" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-abstractnouns]])
