Genesis 50:17

[24:30]  ¹ tn Heb “And it was when he saw the nose ring and the bracelets on the arms of his sister.” The word order is altered in the translation for the sake of clarity.

[24:30]  ² tn Heb “and when he heard the words of Rebekah his sister, saying.”

[24:30]  ³ tn Heb “and look, he was standing.” The disjunctive clause with the participle following the particle הִנֵּה (hinneh) invites the audience to view the scene through Laban’s eyes.

[45:9]  ⁴ tn Heb “hurry and go up.”

[50:17]  ⁷ tn Heb “and Joseph wept when they spoke to him.”
