Genesis 33:13

33:13 But Jacob ¹  said to him, “My lord knows that the children are young, ²  and that I have to look after the sheep and cattle that are nursing their young. ³  If they are driven too hard for even a single day, all the animals will die.

Genesis 41:3

41:3 Then seven bad-looking, thin cows were coming up after them from the Nile, ⁴  and they stood beside the other cows at the edge of the river. ⁵ 

¹ tn Heb “he”; the referent (Jacob) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

² tn Heb “weak.”

³ tn Heb “and the sheep and the cattle nursing [are] upon me.”

⁴ tn Heb “And look, seven other cows were coming up after them from the Nile, bad of appearance and thin of flesh.”

⁵ tn Heb “the Nile.” This has been replaced by “the river” in the translation for stylistic reasons.
