The idiom "the word of Yahweh came to" is used to introduce a special message from God. See how you translated a similar phrase in [Jeremiah 1:4](../01/04.md). Alternate translation: "Yahweh gave a message to Jeremiah the prophet. He said, 'Yahweh" or "Yahweh spoke this message to Jeremiah the prophet: 'Yahweh" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom]])
