I will sing and praise you!

[30:19]  ² tn Heb “everyone [who] has prepared his heart to seek God.”

[30:19]  ³ tn Heb “and not according to the purification of the holy place.”

[7:10]  ⁴ tn Heb “established his heart.”

[7:10]  ⁵ tn Heb “to do and to teach.” The expression may be a hendiadys, in which case it would have the sense of “effectively teaching.”
