1:20But if you refuse and rebel,
you will be devoured50 by the sword.”
Know for certain that the Lord has spoken.51
Footnotes
- 50 The wordplay in the Hebrew draws attention to the options. The people can obey, in which case they will “eat” v. 19 (תֹּאכֵלוּ [to’khelu], Qal active participle of אָכַל) God’s blessing, or they can disobey, in which case they will be devoured (Heb “eaten,” תְּאֻכְּלוּ, [té’ukkélu], Qal passive/Pual of אָכַל) by God’s judgment.
- 51 Heb “for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.” The introductory כִּי (ki) may be asseverative (as reflected in the translation) or causal/explanatory, explaining why the option chosen by the people will become reality (it is guaranteed by the divine word).
