Would ye tarry for them till they were grown? would ye stay for them from having husbands? nay, my daughters; for it grieveth me much for your sakes that the hand of the LORD is gone out against me.
"would you wait for them until they were grown? Would you refrain from having husbands for their sake? No, my daughters, for it is more bitter for me than for you, for the hand of Yahweh has gone out against me."
