Quote:
{28:22} And when he directed himself toward Madyan, he said, "Perhaps my Lord will guide me to the sound way."
I suggest,
{28:22} Then when he faced toward Midian, he said, "Hopefully, my Lord will guide me to the plain road."Quote:
{28:23} And when he came to the well of Madyan, he found there a crowd of people watering [their flocks], and he found aside from them two women driving back [their flocks]. He said, "What is your circumstance?" They said, "We do not water until the shepherds dispatch [their flocks]; and our father is an old man."
I suggest,
{28:23} And when he passed by the water of Midian (the well), he found a horde of people seeking to drink. And he found beside them two women keeping back. He said, "What is your matter?" They said, "We do not water until the shepherds dispatch; and our father is an aged old man."Quote:
{28:24} So he watered [their flocks] for them; then he went back to the shade and said, "My Lord, indeed I am, for whatever good You would send down to me, in need."
Great translation. This is one of my favorite verses. This is a wonderful supplication and it was promptly answered as will soon be shown.
