9:16 The leaders of this nation were misleading people,
and the people being led were destroyed. 1
29:24 Those who stray morally will gain understanding; 2
those who complain will acquire insight. 3
1 tn Heb “and the ones being led were swallowed up.” Instead of taking מְבֻלָּעִים (mÿbulla’im) from בָּלַע (bala’, “to swallow”), HALOT 134 s.v. בלע proposes a rare homonymic root בלע (“confuse”) here.
2 tn Heb “and the ones who stray in spirit will know understanding.”
3 tn Heb “will learn instruction”; cf. NASB, NIV, NRSV, NLT “will accept instruction.”
