# Every exalted heart is an abomination to Yahweh
|
|
|
|
"Yahweh strongly hates every exalted heart." See how you translated "abomination" in [Proverbs 3:2](../03..02.md).

# Every exalted heart
|
|
|
|
Here the word "exalted" is a metaphor for "arrogant" because the person himself exalts his heart rather than allowing God or other people to exalt it. The word "heart" represents the person. Alternate translation: "everyone who is arrogant" or "every arrogant person" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-synecdoche]])

# they will not go unpunished
|
|
|
|
The two negatives in this phrase strongly emphasize the positive. This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "Yahweh will certainly punish them" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-litotes]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])
