Hebrew: question of wordings in the Torah
#6
The word-for-word translation is much softer. The German translation also says "I will increase greatly...". Perhaps it is an adaptation to typical usage. For example, in English you use a passive form very often, while in German it sounds strange and we change the translation to an active form.
