[9:16]  1 tn The translation assumes that the infinitive לִזְכֹּר (lizkor, “to remember”) here expresses the result of seeing the rainbow. Another option is to understand it as indicating purpose, in which case it could be translated, “I will look at it so that I may remember.”

[17:16]  2 tn Heb “she will become nations.”

[17:16]  3 tn Heb “peoples.”
