NASB | Deuteronomy 5:11 ¶ 'You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain, for the LORD will not leave him unpunished who takes His name in vain. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Deuteronomy 5:11 ¶ 'You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain [that is, irreverently, in false affirmations or in ways that impugn the character of God]; for the LORD will not hold guiltless nor leave unpunished the one who takes His name in vain [disregarding its reverence and its power]. |
Subject: Why did the NASB change JEHOVAH to Lord? |
Bible Note: Thanks Tim, for filling in my blanks. I've been in a Hebrew congregation where this came up. The person was reading in Hebrew, but when they came to the NAME they wouldn't say anything. It seemed sadly awkward to me at the time, but I suppose they've had centuries to adjust. It breaks my heart that the NAME they've long forgotten is for them the name of The Unknown God. mrk |
