The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran
The Masoretic Text and the Dead Sea Scrolls agree closely, with the scrolls preserving most of the words intact. The Septuagint, while not a direct match, provides a translation that reflects similar themes of protection and peace.
