How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
In this study, the verse is read in the Berean Standard Bible, which uses thanksgiving for תּוֹדָה and sound of celebration for וְק֣וֹל.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The finite verb וְיָצָא (and it will go out) governs the main clause, indicating the action of thanksgiving proceeding from the people. This is followed by a series of clauses that elaborate on God's promises regarding multiplication and honor.
The structure presents a clear progression: first, the act of thanksgiving, then the assurances of increase and honor, culminating in the negation of diminishment and insignificance. This flow emphasizes the positive transformation God is bringing about.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates וְיָצָא as ἐχελεύσονται, which suggests a gathering or coming together, focusing on the collective aspect of thanksgiving. This choice shows a slight shift from the individual to the communal expression of joy.
This translation reflects an interpretive layer, highlighting the importance of community in worship and celebration, which is a significant aspect of the original Hebrew context.

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.

di-min'-ish: the Revised Version (British and American) has retained nearly all passages of the King James Version where "to diminish" is used. Some of these uses have become obsolete: De 4:2, "neither shall ye diminish from it." "Diminish" generally means "to reduce," "to lessen." In this sense it is employed in Eze 5:11 from the Hebrew gara`, literally, "to shear." The picture of shearing the beard, expressing degradation and loss of manhood, may underlie this passage.
