מֵאֲשֶׁ֨ר יָקַ֧רְתָּ בְעֵינַ֛י נִכְבַּ֖דְתָּ וַאֲנִ֣י אֲהַבְתִּ֑יךָ וְאֶתֵּ֤ן אָדָם֙ תַּחְתֶּ֔יךָ וּלְאֻמִּ֖ים תַּ֥חַת נַפְשֶֽׁךָ׃
Oleh karena engkau berharga di mata-Ku dan dimuliakan, dan Aku mengasihi engkau, maka Aku memberikan manusia sebagai gantimu, dan bangsa-bangsa sebagai ganti nyawamu.
Ibn Ezra
Therefore will I give men, whom I have created, as I have created thee.
Tze'enah Ure'enah
“Because you are precious in my eyes, etc.” [43:4]. The Holy One said: Because you are very just and honored, therefore I love you and give the nations to your city that they should be your scapegoat.
