And the gold of oOphir as the stones of the brooks.

25Yea, the Almighty shall be thy ||defence,

And thou shalt have †plenty of silver.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

If you return to the Almighty you will be built up;

if you remove injustice far from your tents,

if you lay gold in the dust,

and gold of Ophir among the stones of the torrent-bed,

then the Almighty will be your gold

and your precious silver.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

If you return to the Almighty, you will be restored:

If you remove wickedness far from your tent

and assign your nuggets to the dust,

your gold of Ophir to the rocks in the ravines,

then the Almighty will be your gold,

the choicest silver for you.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

If you return to the Almighty, you will be renewed.

If you banish injustice from your tent

and consign your gold to the dust,

the gold of Ophir to the stones in the wadis,

the Almighty will be your gold

and your finest silver.

NLTNew Living Translation

If you return to the Almighty, you will be restored—

so clean up your life.

If you give up your lust for money

and throw your precious gold into the river,

the Almighty himself will be your treasure.

He will be your precious silver!

If you return to Shaddai, you will be restored;

if you remove wickedness from your tent,

and if you put gold ore in the dust,

and the gold of Ophir in the rock of wadis,

then Shaddai will be your gold ore

and your precious silver.
