[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.”
