[22:8]  ¹ tn Heb “return to your tents with.”

[22:8]  ² tn Heb “very many cattle.”

[22:8]  ³ tn Heb “very much clothing.”

[1:4]  ⁴ tn Heb “all the land of the Hittites.” The expression “the land of the Hittites” does not refer to Anatolia (modern Turkey), where the ancient Hittite kingdom of the second millennium b.c. was located, but rather to Syria, the “Hatti land” mentioned in inscriptions of the first millennium b.c. (see HALOT 1:363). The phrase is omitted in the LXX and may be a scribal addition.

[1:4]  ⁵ tn Heb “the Great Sea,” the typical designation for the Mediterranean Sea.

[1:4]  ⁶ tn Heb “From the wilderness and this Lebanon even to the great river, the River Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, even to the great sea [at] the place where the sun sets, your territory will be.”

The translation assumes that the form is an alternative or corruption of נצוה (“beautiful woman”). A reference to a woman would be appropriate in light of v. 11b.
