22:6 If you happen to notice a bird’s nest along the road, whether in a tree or on the ground, and there are chicks or eggs with the mother bird sitting on them, 1 you must not take the mother from the young. 2
10:14 The roar of battle will rise against your people;
all your fortresses will be devastated,
just as Shalman devastated 3 Beth Arbel on the day of battle,
when mothers were dashed to the ground with their children.
1 tn Heb “and the mother sitting upon the chicks or the eggs.”
2 tn Heb “sons,” used here in a generic sense for offspring.
3 tn Heb “as the devastation of Shalman.” The genitive noun שַׁלְמַן (shalman, “Shalman”) functions as a subjective genitive: “as Shalman devastated [Beth Arbel].”
