# Return the sword to its sheath
|
|
|
|
"Later the sword will be put back in its sheath." This speaks of the soldiers withdrawing from attacking Jerusalem, by saying that Yahweh's sword is put back in its sheath. Alternate translation: "But later the soldiers will return their swords to their sheaths, for the time of slaughter will be over" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])

The word "creation" may be expressed as a verb. Alternate translation: "In the place that I created you" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-abstractnouns]])
