Leviticus 26:5

[15:16]  ¹ tn Heb “And a man when a lying of seed goes out from him”; KJV, ASV “any man’s seed of copulation”; NIV, NRSV, TEV, NLT “an emission of semen.”

[15:16]  ² tn Heb “and he shall bathe all his flesh in water.”

[20:4]  ³ tn Heb “And if shutting [infinitive absolute] they shut [finite verb].” For the infinitive absolute used to highlight contrast rather than emphasis see GKC 343 §113.p.

[20:4]  ⁴ tn Heb “from that man” (so ASV); NASB “disregard that man.”

[21:17]  ⁵ tn Heb “to their generations.”

[21:17]  ⁶ tn Heb “who in him is a flaw”; cf. KJV, ASV “any blemish”; NASB, NIV “a defect.” The rendering “physical flaw” is used to refer to any birth defect or physical injury of the kind described in the following verses (cf. the same Hebrew word also in Lev 24:19-20). The same term is used for “flawed” animals, which must not be offered to the Lord in Lev 22:20-25.

[26:5]  ⁷ tn Heb “will reach for you the vintage season.”

[26:5]  ⁸ tn Heb “and.” The Hebrew conjunction ו (vav, “and”) can be considered to have resultative force here.

[26:5]  ⁹ tn Heb “to satisfaction”; KJV, ASV, NASB “to the full.”
