43:28 “Your servant our father is well,” they replied. “He is still alive.” They bowed down in humility.


tn The vav with the pronoun before the verb calls special attention to the subject in contrast to the preceding subject.

sn You will go to your ancestors. This is a euphemistic expression for death.
