25:8 “‘You must count off 1 seven weeks of years, seven times seven years, 2 and the days of the seven weeks of years will amount to forty-nine years. 3 25:9 You must sound loud horn blasts 4 – in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, on the Day of Atonement – you must sound the horn in your entire land.
1 tn Heb “And you shall count off for yourself.”
2 tn Heb “seven years seven times.”
3 tn Heb “and they shall be for you, the days of the seven Sabbaths of years, forty-nine years.”
4 sn On the “loud horn blasts” see the note on Lev 23:24, but unlike the language there, the Hebrew term for “horn” (שׁוֹפָר, shofar) actually appears here in this verse (twice).
