# You have forsaken me ... you have gone back from me
|
|
|
|
These two phrases mean basically the same thing and emphasize that the people have, indeed, forsaken Yahweh. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-parallelism]])

# this is Yahweh's declaration
|
|
|
|
Yahweh speaks of himself by name to express the certainty of what he is declaring. See how you translated this in [Jeremiah 1:8](../01/08.md). Alternate translation: "this is what Yahweh has declared" or "this is what I, Yahweh, have declared" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-123person]])

# gone back from me
|
|
|
|
"left me" or "gone away from me"
|
|
|
|
# I will strike you with my hand
|
|
|
|
Here "hand" represents power. Alternate translation: "I will use my power to strike you" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]])
