Deuteronomy 28:25

¹ tn Heb “you must not see.” See note at 22:1.

² tn Heb “and (must not) hide yourself from them.”

³ tn The Hebrew text uses the infinitive absolute for emphasis, which the translation indicates with “be sure.”

⁴ tn Heb “help him to lift them up.” In keeping with English style the singular is used in the translation, and the referent (“the animal”) has been specified for clarity.

⁵ sn See Exod 17:8-16.

⁹ tn Heb “who rise up against” (so NIV).

¹⁰ tn Heb “way” (also later in this verse and in v. 25).

¹³ tc The meaningless MT reading זַעֲוָה (za’avah) is clearly a transposition of the more commonly attested Hebrew noun זְוָעָה (zÿva’ah, “terror”).
