[8:18]  ¹ tn The meaning of the Hebrew term is primarily emotional: “to pity,” which in context implies an action, as in being moved by pity in order to spare them from the horror of their punishment.

[19:9]  ² tn Or “They put him in a neck stock with hooks.” The noun סּוּגַר (sugar), translated “collar,” occurs only here in the Bible. L. C. Allen and D. I. Block point out a Babylonian cognate that refers to a device for transporting prisoners of war that held them by their necks (D. I. Block, Ezekiel [NICOT], 1:597, n. 35; L. C. Allen, Ezekiel [WBC], 1:284). Based on the Hebrew root, the traditional rendering had been “cage” (cf. ASV, NAB, NASB, NIV, NRSV).

[19:9]  ³ tc The term in the MT occurs only here and in Eccl 9:12 where it refers to a net for catching fish. The LXX translates this as “prison,” which assumes a confusion of dalet and resh took place in the MT.

[26:10]  ³ tn Heb “From the abundance of his horses he will cover you (with) their dust.”

[26:10]  ⁴ tn Heb “like those who enter a breached city.”

[33:4]  ⁴ tn Heb “his blood will be on his own head.”

[33:5]  ⁵ tn Heb “his blood will be on him.”

[33:32]  ⁶ tn The word הִנֵּה (hinneh, traditionally “behold”) indicates becoming aware of something and has been translated here as a verb.

[33:32]  ⁷ tn Heb “one who makes playing music well.”

[33:32]  ⁸ sn Similar responses are found in Isa 29:13; Matt 21:28-32; James 1:22-25.

[37:7]  ⁷ tn The word הִנֵּה (hinneh, traditionally “behold”) indicates becoming aware of something and has been translated here as a verb.
