Deuteronomy 22:2

22:2 If the owner ¹  does not live ²  near you or you do not know who the owner is, ³  then you must corral the animal ⁴  at your house and let it stay with you until the owner looks for it; then you must return it to him.

¹ tn Heb “your brother” (also later in this verse).

² tn Heb “is not.” The idea of “residing” is implied.

³ tn Heb “and you do not know him.”

⁴ tn Heb “it”; the referent (the ox or sheep mentioned in v. 1) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
