89:32 I will punish their rebellion by beating them with a club, 1
their sin by inflicting them with bruises. 2
89:33 But I will not remove 3 my loyal love from him,
nor be unfaithful to my promise. 4
1 tn Heb “I will punish with a club their rebellion.”
2 tn Heb “with blows their sin.”
3 tn Heb “break”; “make ineffectual.” Some prefer to emend אָפִיר (’afir; the Hiphil of פָּרַר, parar, “to break”) to אָסִיר (’asir; the Hiphil of סוּר, sur, “to turn aside”), a verb that appears in 2 Sam 7:15.
4 tn Heb “and I will not deal falsely with my faithfulness.”
