1 tn Heb “you, tell in order that you may be right”; NAB “prove your innocence.”
2 tn The meaning of the verb אָשַׁשׁ (’ashash, which appears here in the Hitpolel stem) is uncertain. BDB 84 s.v. אשׁשׁ relates it to a root meaning “found, establish” in Arabic; HALOT 100 s.v. II אשׁשׁ gives the meaning “pluck up courage.” The imperative with vav (ו) may indicate purpose following the preceding imperative.
3 tn Heb “return [it], rebels, to heart”; NRSV “recall it to mind, you transgressors.”
