38 “In view of all this, we are making a binding agreement, putting it in writing, and our leaders, our Levites and our priests are affixing their seals to it.”

38  “Because of all this we make a firm covenant in writing; on the sealed document are the names of our princes, our Levites, and our priests.

38 The people responded, “In view of all this, we are making a solemn promise and putting it in writing. On this sealed document are the names of our leaders and Levites and priests.”

38 “And because of all this,

We make a sure covenant and write it;

Our leaders, our Levites, and our priests seal it.”

38 “Because of all this, we are making an agreement in writing, and our leaders, Levites, and priests are putting their seals on it.”

38 And yet for all this we make a sure covenant, and write it; and our princes, our Levites, and our priests, seal unto it.

38 And because of all this we make a sure covenant, and write it; and our princes, our Levites, and our priests are at the sealing.

38 “We are making a binding agreement ⸤and putting it⸥ in writing because of all this. Our leaders, Levites, and priests are putting their seals on the document.” 

38 In view of all this, we are making a binding agreement in writing on a sealed document containing the names of our leaders, Levites, and priests.

38 Because of all this we make a firm agreement in writing, and on that sealed document are inscribed the names of our officials, our Levites, and our priests.

38  “Now because of all of this we make a binding written agreement and are writing on the sealed documents the names of our commanders, our Levites, and our priests.”

38 “So we are making a firm agreement. We’re writing it down. Our leaders are stamping it with their seals. And so are our Levites and priests.”

38 “Now because of all this

We are making an agreement in writing;

And on the sealed document are the names of our leaders, our Levites and our priests.”
