For thou knowest that my father numbereth the days: and if I stay one day more, his soul will be afflicted.
You know that my father is counting the days until I come home, and he will be very upset if I am even one day late. You know, too, how Raguel insists that I must stay, and I cannot disappoint him.
You have witnessed the oath that Raguel has sworn; I cannot violate his oath.”
As you realize, my father must be counting the days, and if my return should be delayed by as little as a single day, he will be deeply grieved. You witnessed the oath that Raguel has sworn, and I cannot violate that oath.”
