Numbers 16:37

16:37 “Tell ¹  Eleazar son of Aaron the priest to pick up ²  the censers out of the flame, for they are holy, and then scatter the coals of fire ³  at a distance.

¹ tn Heb “say to.”

² tn The verb is the jussive with a vav (ו) coming after the imperative; it may be subordinated to form a purpose clause (“that he may pick up”) or the object of the imperative.

³ tn The Hebrew text just has “fire,” but it would be hard to conceive of this action apart from the idea of coals of fire.
