Deuteronomy 2:25
Context2:25 This very day I will begin to fill all the people of the earth 1 with dread and to terrify them when they hear about you. They will shiver and shake in anticipation of your approach.” 2
Deuteronomy 28:30
Context28:30 You will be engaged to a woman and another man will rape 3 her. You will build a house but not live in it. You will plant a vineyard but not even begin to use it.


[2:25] 1 tn Heb “under heaven” (so NIV, NRSV).
[2:25] 2 tn Heb “from before you.”
[28:30] 3 tc For MT reading שָׁגַל (shagal, “ravish; violate”), the Syriac, Targum, and Vulgate presume the less violent שָׁכַב (shakhav, “lie with”). The unexpected counterpart to betrothal here favors the originality of the MT.
