|
|
22. For the LORD will not forsake his people for his great name's sake: because it hath pleased the LORD to make you his people.
|
22. For H3588 the LORD H3068 will not H3808 forsake H5203 H853 his people H5971 for his great H1419 name H8034 's sake H5668 : because H3588 it hath pleased H2974 the LORD H3068 to make H6213 you his people H5971 .
