The Key Word — שׁוּב, ve.shav.Tigenerated
The verb שׁוּב (shuwb) means to return or turn back, covering a wide range of contexts including physical, spiritual, and relational. It conveys the idea of restoration after a period of separation or punishment.
In this verse, it indicates that the LORD will reverse the captivity of Moab, bringing them back from exile. This restoration is not just a physical return but also implies a spiritual renewal, as the people are invited back into a right relationship with God.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, which uses restore for שׁוּב. The KJV and ASV also use restore, maintaining the promise of bringing Moab back.
Where the translations differ is in the rendering of הֵ֖נָּה. The ASV, KJV, and others translate it as thus, while the BSB and others opt for here, indicating a slight variation in emphasis.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The finite verb governing the verse is שַׁבְתִּ֧י, I will restore, which leads the sentence. The structure indicates a clear promise from the LORD, with the subject being Moab and the object being the restoration from captivity.
The sentence flows logically from the declaration of judgment to the promise of restoration, emphasizing the transition from punishment to hope.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint does not provide a direct Greek equivalent for the Hebrew words in this verse, indicating a close alignment with the Masoretic Text. The absence of a specific translation suggests that the translators recognized the significance of the Hebrew terms without altering their meaning.
This approach highlights the continuity of the message regarding Moab's future restoration, consistent with the Hebrew text.

Matthew Poole1624–1679Matthew Poole's Commentary on the Holy BibleSome think this prophecy was fulfilled upon the return of the Jews out of Babylon, when the Jews inhabited the land of Moab, ; but this doth not seem to be the bringing again the captivity of Moab, but of Judah; besides, in that place it is said that Moab should be as Sodom, and the children of Ammon as Gomorrah, even the breeding of nettles, and salt-pits, and a perpetual desolation. It is therefore rather to be understood of a spiritual reduction of them, by calling some of them under the kingdom of the Messiah, as the Jewish doctors themselves interpret it. Some think this a promise rather respecting the Jews than the Moabites; it is said, , that the remnant of the Lord’ s people should…

AdamClarkeAdam Clarke's Commentary on the BibleVerse 47. Will I bring again the captivity of Moab in the latter days] I have already expressed doubts (see Jeremiah 48:42) whether the Moabites were ever restored to their national distinction. The expressions in this chapter, relative to their total destruction as a people, are so strong and so frequent, that they leave little room for a limited interpretation. That many of them returned on the edict of Cyrus, by virtue of which the Jews were restored, I doubt not; but neither the Ammonites, Moabites, Philistines, nor even the Jews themselves, were ever restored to their national consequence. Perhaps the restoration spoken of here, which was to take place in the latter days, may mean the…

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.

(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.

יְהֹוָה (ye.ho.vah) is the proper name of the God of Israel, often rendered as Jehovah or the Lord. It signifies the self-existent or eternal nature of God. The name is closely associated with the revelation to Moses in Exodus 3:12-15 and is used in conjunction with other terms to denote sacred places. Some scholars suggest it derives from a root meaning 'to bring into being.'
יהוה c. 6823 i.e. יַהְוֶה n.pr.dei Yahweh, the proper name of the God of Israel—(1. MT יְהֹוָה 6518 (Qr אֲדֹנָי), or יֱהֹוִה 305 (Qr אֱלֹהִים) 2. Many recent scholars explain יַהְוֶה as Hiph. of הוה (= היה) the one bringing into being, life-giver)
יהוה is not used by E in Gn, but is given Ex 3:12-15 as the name of the God who revealed Himself to Moses at Horeb
יהוה is used with אלהים and suffixes, especially in D
the phrase † אֲנִי יהוה is noteworthy
