[22:6]  3 tn Heb “Look! The princes of Israel, each according to his arm, were in you in order to shed blood.”

[22:9]  4 tn Heb “men of slander are in you in order to shed blood.”

[22:9]  5 tn Heb “and on the mountains they eat within you.” The mountains mentioned here were the site of pagan sacrifices. See 18:6.
