“Beginilah firman Yang Mahakekal semesta alam, Allah Israel: Oleh karena engkau telah mengirim surat-surat atas namamu sendiri kepada seluruh rakyat yang ada di Yerusalem, kepada Imam Zefanya bin Maaseya, dan kepada semua imam, bunyinya:
Radak
With you: Meaning to say, before you and in your presence - as you were there when I prayed. And I prayed for this lad and the Lord granted me what I asked, as you proclaimed to me. And the [letter,] hey [at the end of the word, imcha (with you)] is like the hey in (Jeremiah 29:25), "that you sent books in your name"; (Exodus 13:16) "and they will be a sign upon your hand"; and those that are similar to it. As leave it alone - sometimes it is written and sometimes it is not written. And there is a homiletical teaching about it - from here, [we learn about] the four cubits of prayer.
