TSNTyndale Study Notes:

55:6 while you can find him: When God graciously extends an invitation to salvation, people must respond (65:1; Jer 29:13-14; Hos 5:6; 10:12). Those who do not seek him at such times risk never having the opportunity again.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

(Occurrence 0) Seek Yahweh while he may be found

(Some words not found in UHB: seek YHWH in/on/at/with,found,he call_upon,him in/on/at/with,is,he near )

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “Seek Yahweh while you can still find him”
