Exodus 22:15
Context22:15 If its owner was with it, he will not have to pay; if it was hired, what was paid for the hire covers it. 1
Exodus 2:9
Context2:9 Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Take this child 2 and nurse him for me, and I will pay your 3 wages.” So the woman took the child and nursed him.


[22:15] 1 tn Literally “it came with/for its hire,” this expression implies that the owner who hired it out and was present was prepared to take the risk, so there would be no compensation.
[2:9] 2 tn The verb is the Hiphil imperative of the verb הָלַךְ (halakh), and so is properly rendered “cause to go” or “take away.”
[2:9] 3 tn The possessive pronoun on the noun “wage” expresses the indirect object: “I will pay wages to you.”
