21:30 that the evil man is spared
from the day of his misfortune,
that he is delivered 1
from the day of God’s wrath?
21:32 And when he is carried to the tombs,
and watch is kept 2 over the funeral mound, 3
1 tn The verb means “to be led forth.” To be “led forth in the day of trouble” means to be delivered.
2 tn The verb says “he will watch.” The subject is unspecified, so the translation is passive.
3 tn The Hebrew word refers to the tumulus, the burial mound that is erected on the spot where the person is buried.
