17 And it came to pass, when Pharaoh had let the peoplego, that Godled them not through the way of the land of the Philistines, although that wasnear; for Godsaid, Lest peradventure the peoplerepent when they seewar, and they return to Egypt:
17 Now after Pharaoh had let the people go, God did not take them through the land of the Philistines, though that was near: for God said, If the people see war, they may have a change of heart and go back to Egypt.
17 바로가 백성을 보낸 후에 블레셋 사람의 땅의 길은 가까울찌라도 하나님이 그들을 그 길로 인도하지 아니하셨으니 이는 하나님이 말씀하시기를 이 백성이 전쟁을 보면 뉘우쳐 애굽으로 돌아갈까 하셨음이라
[x]MKJV: And it happened, when Pharaoh had let the people go, God did not lead them [by] the way of the land of the Philistines although that [was] near. For God said, Lest the people repent when they see war, and they return to Egypt. BBE: Now after Pharaoh had let the people go, God did not take them through the land of the Philistines, though that was near: for God said, If the people see war, they may have a change of heart and go back to Egypt. KAV: ¶ 파라오가 백성을 가게 하였을 때에 블레셋 사람들의 땅에 있는 길은 가까울지라도 [하나님]께서 그들을 그 길로 인도하지 아니하셨으니 이는 [하나님]께서 말씀하시기를, 혹시 이 백성이 전쟁을 보면 뜻을 돌이키고 이집트로 되돌아갈까 염려하노라, 하셨기 때문이라.
