The words "precious" and "special" mean basically the same thing and emphasize how much Yahweh values his people. AT: "Because you are very precious to me" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-doublet]])
# therefore I will give people in exchange for you, and other peoples in exchange for your life
Both phrases mean the same thing. AT: "therefore I will let the enemy conquer other peoples instead of you" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-parallelism]])
