Footnotes
The declaration pivots from history to the present moment with *ve'atah* (וְעַתָּה, 'and now'), linking the great rescue narrative directly to this immediate act of offering. *Hinneh* (הִנֵּה, 'behold') is a particle of presentational immediacy: 'look — here it is.' The confession climaxes not in words but in gesture: the basket is placed, the body bows. The worshipper does not merely recite a creed; he enacts it. This movement from spoken word to physical act is the embodiment of Deuteronomy's theology of wholehearted response. Both translations preserve this pivot, though FOG Message's 'bow in worship before Him' makes the act of *hishtachavah* (prostration) slightly more explicit for modern readers.
