# has insight and knows me
"understands who I am and knows me." Both of these phrases have similar meanings. They emphasize people knowing who Yahweh is and understanding who he is. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-parallelism]])
# For I am Yahweh
This refers to people knowing Yahweh and his ways. Alternate translation: "Because people should understand that I am Yahweh" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])

# For it is in these that I take pleasure
The word "these" refers to covenant loyalty, justice, and righteousness.
# this is Yahweh's declaration
Yahweh speaks of himself by name to express the certainty of what he is declaring. See how you translated this in [Jeremiah 1:8](../01/08.md). Alternate translation: "this is what Yahweh has declared" or "this is what I, Yahweh, have declared" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-123person]])
