Would this keep you from marrying someone else? No, my daughters, you know that is not possible. Jehovah has turned against me. I feel sorry for you.«

ISV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² So go on back, my daughters! Be on your way! I’m too old to remarry. If I were to say that I’m hoping for a husband tonight and then also bore sons this very night, ¹³ would you wait for them until they were grown? Would you refrain from marriage for them? No, my daughters! I’m more deeply grieved than you, because the LORD is working against me!”

LEB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Turn back, my daughters! Go, for _⌊I am too old to have a husband_⌋.* If I should think there is hope for me, even if I should have a husband this night, and even if I should bear sons, ¹³ would you therefore wait until they were grown? Would you therefore _⌊refrain from marrying_⌋?* No, my daughters, for it is far more bitter to me than to you. For the hand of Yahweh has gone out against me."

BSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Return home, my daughters. Go on, for I am too old to have another husband. Even if I thought there was hope for me to have a husband tonight and to bear sons, ¹³ would you wait for them to grow up? Would you refrain from having husbands? No, my daughters, it grieves me very much for your sakes that the hand of the LORD has gone out against me.”

MSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Return home, my daughters. Go on, for I am too old to have another husband.

No, my daughters, it grieves me very much for your sakes that the hand of the LORD has gone out against me.”

MLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Turn again, my daughters. Go your* way, for I am too old to have a husband. If I should say, I have hope. If I should even have a husband tonight and should also bear sons, ¹³ would you* therefore delay till they were grown? Would you* therefore stay from having husbands? No, my daughters, for it grieves me much for your* sakes, for the hand of Jehovah has gone forth against me.

VIN⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² "Return home, my daughters. I am too old to get married again. Even if I thought there was still hope, and got married and had sons, ¹³ would you wait for them until they were grown?
