[40:4]  ¹ sn He served them. This is the same Hebrew verb, meaning “to serve as a personal attendant,” that was translated “became [his] servant” in 39:4.

[40:4]  ² tn Heb “they were days in custody.”

[40:7]  ³ tn Heb “why are your faces sad today?”

[24:12]  ⁴ tn The words “until they were able” are not in the Hebrew text, but are implied.

[24:12]  ⁵ tn The Hebrew here is awkward. A literal reading would be something like the following: “And they placed him in custody to give a clear decision [HALOT 976 s.v. פרשׁ qal] for themselves on the mouth of the Lord.” In any case, they were apparently waiting for a direct word from the Lord regarding this matter (see vv. 13ff).

[119:65]  ⁶ tn Heb “do good.”

[119:65]  ⁷ tn Heb “according to your word.”
