Yahweh continues speaking to Jeremiah.
|
||
|
||
## that day ##
|
||
|
||
This refers to the day the Babylonians break through the walls of Jerusalem to destroy the city.
|
||
|
||
## this is Yahweh’s declaration ##
|
||
|
||
See how you translated this in [Jeremiah 1:7](../01/07.md).
|
||
|
||
## you will not be put into the hand of the men whom you fear ##
|
||
|
||
Here "hand" refers to power or control. AT: "the men you fear will not harm you" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
|
||
|
||
## You will not fall by the sword ##
|
||
|
||
AT: "No one will kill you with their sword" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-euphemism]])
|
||
|
||
## Your life will be your own plunder, since you trust in me ##
|
||
|
||
"Your reward for trusting me is not being killed" |
