22:12 “Is not God on high in heaven? 1
And see 2 the lofty stars, 3 how high they are!
1 tn This reading preserves the text as it is. The nouns “high” and “heavens” would then be taken as adverbial accusatives of place (see GKC 373-74 §118.g).
2 tn The parallel passage in Isa 40:26-27, as well as the context here, shows that the imperative is to be retained here. The LXX has “he sees.”
3 tn Heb “head of the stars.”
