1 | Is there a difference in meaning? | 1 Chr 4:10 | Oomie | 6464 | ||
I'm new to this forum, just registered today. I submitted a question before searching to see if it was already asked-please forgive. I don't know why the NKJV is so different from the others-just discovered that yesterday. I believe the difference is very important. The NKJV points to the humility of Jabez in that he was as much or more concerned that his experience of pain would cause him to inflict pain on others without God's intervention. I've heard it said that people who abuse others have been abused themselves. Please read Matthew Henry's Unabridged Commentary 1Chr 4:1-10; III; 3; (3) (....God's hand with us, to lead us, protect us, strengthen us, and to work all our works in us and for us is indeed....all-sufficient). This was published in 1712 while the NKJV was published in 1979, I find this of interest and confirms for me the depth of insight in Henry's writings. | ||||||
2 | Is there a difference in meaning? | 1 Chr 4:10 | kalos | 6500 | ||
Oomie: Welcome to the Forum. I enjoyed reading your answer. You make some good observations. Indeed the depth of insight in Matthew Henry's writings is informative and inspiring. Yes, the same passage in the NKJV is different than in other translations. Compare the same verse in the NET Bible and the Amplified. 1 Chr 4:10 (New English Translation) Jabez called out to the God of Israel, "If only you would greatly bless me and expand my territory! May your hand be with me! Keep me from harm so I might not endure pain!" God answered his prayer. Translators footnote: Heb "and act from [i.e., so as to prevent] harm so that I might not be in pain." New English Translation (http://www.netbible.com) The same verse in part in the Amplified Bible reads: "...and You would keep me from evil so it might not hurt me!" |
