NASB | 1 Chronicles 4:10 Now Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, "Oh that You would bless me indeed and enlarge my border, and that Your hand might be with me, and that You would keep me from harm that it may not pain me!" And God granted him what he requested. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Chronicles 4:10 Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, saying, "Oh that You would indeed bless me and enlarge my border [property], and that Your hand would be with me, and You would keep me from evil so that it does not hurt me!" And God granted his request. |
Bible Question (short): Is there a difference in meaning? |
Question (full): The last part of the prayer of Jabez from the New King James Version that everyone is quoting reads, "...that I may not cause pain!". The NASB reads, "...that it may not pain me". The KJV, NIV, and Amplified read in a similar way to the NASB. To me these mean different things. I read the NASB as saying; don't let the harm cause pain to me where the NKJV says to me so that I won't do the harm. Is there a difference, translation issue, or am I thinking about it too hard? |
