OET (OET-RV) But if they say, ‘Come on up to us,’ then we’ll go up, because that’ll be the sign to us that Yahweh will help us overpower them.”
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
