22:9 Yes, you are the one who brought me out 1 from the womb
and made me feel secure on my mother’s breasts.
22:10 I have been dependent on you since birth; 2
from the time I came out of my mother’s womb you have been my God. 3
1 tn Or “the one who pulled me.” The verb is derived from either גָחָה (gakhah; see HALOT 187 s.v. גחה) or גִּיחַ (giyakh; see BDB 161 s.v. גִּיחַ) and seems to carry the nuance “burst forth” or “pull out.”
2 tn Heb “upon you I was cast from [the] womb.”
3 tn Heb “from the womb of my mother you [have been] my God.”
