[10:6]  1 tn The Hebrew word translated “yellow jasper” is תַּרשִׁישׁ (tarshish); it appears to be a semiprecious stone, but its exact identity is somewhat uncertain. It may be the yellow jasper, although this is conjectural. Cf. NAB, NIV “chrysolite”; NASB, NRSV “beryl.”

[10:6]  2 tn Heb “torches of fire.”

[10:6]  3 tn Heb “The sound of his words” (cf. v. 9).

[10:9]  4 tc Heb “I heard the sound of his words.” These words are absent in the LXX and the Syriac.

[10:9]  5 tn Heb “as I listened to the sound of his words.”
