Action for Jeremiah's good · dominant
In Jeremiah 15:11, the form is a Qal perfect, first common singular verb within the LORD's question concerning action for Jeremiah's good. The APB renders the verse, “Have I not set you free for good? Have I not intervened for you in time of evil and in time of distress with the enemy?” but its loose wording does not identify a single English equivalent for this form.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Jeremiah 15:11, the APB presents the surrounding divine question with “set you free for good” and “intervened for you.” Its precise rendering of this term remains unclear.
