Wherefore the sin of the young men was very great before the LORD: for men abhorred the offering of the LORD.
Wherefore the sin {H2403} of the young men {H5288} was very {H3966} great {H1419} before {H6440} the LORD {H3068}: for men {H582} abhorred {H5006} the offering {H4503} of the LORD {H3068}.
The sin of these young men was very serious in ADONAI's view, because they treated offerings made to ADONAI with contempt.
Thus the sin of these young men was severe in the sight of the LORD, for they were treating the LORD’s offering with contempt.
And the sin of the young men was very great before Jehovah; for the men despised the offering of Jehovah.
