I doubt that NET as a whole would be called a dynamic-equivalence
translation by those of us working with such translations. It is much closer
to what we would call a modified literal translation, in many ways similar
to the NIV.

Having said that, I think a more literal translation of the phrase ALL' EN
PANTI would be dynamic enough, for instance:
"Don't be worried, but in every situation bring your requests to God in
prayer and with thanksgiving."
