26:34 “‘Then the land will make up for ⁶  its Sabbaths all the days it lies desolate while you are in the land of your enemies; then the land will rest and make up its Sabbaths.

26:43 The land will be abandoned by them ⁷  in order that it may make up for ⁸  its Sabbaths while it is made desolate ⁹  without them, ¹⁰  and they will make up for their iniquity because ¹¹  they have rejected my regulations and have abhorred ¹²  my statutes.

[26:31]  ¹ tn Heb “And I will give your cities a waste”; NLT “make your cities desolate.”

[26:35]  ¹ tn Heb “it shall rest which it did not rest.”

[26:22]  ¹ tn Heb “the animal of the field.” This collective singular has been translated as a plural. The expression “animal of the field” refers to a wild (i.e., nondomesticated) animal.

[26:22]  ² tn The words “of your children” are not in the Hebrew text, but are implied.

[26:22]  ³ tn Heb “and diminish you.”

[26:34]  ¹ tn There are two Hebrew roots רָצָה (ratsah), one meaning “to be pleased with; to take pleasure” (HALOT 1280-81 s.v. רצה; cf. “enjoy” in NASB, NIV, NRSV, and J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 452), and the other meaning “to restore” (HALOT 1281-82 s.v. II רצה; cf. NAB “retrieve” and B. A. Levine, Leviticus [JPSTC], 189).

[26:43]  ¹ tn Heb “from them.” The preposition “from” refers here to the agent of the action (J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 455).

[26:43]  ² tn The jussive form of the verb with the simple vav (ו) here calls for a translation that expresses purpose.

[26:43]  ³ tn The verb is the Hophal infinitive construct with the third feminine singular suffix (GKC 182 §67.y; cf. v. 34).

[26:43]  ⁴ tn Heb “from them.”

[26:43]  ⁵ tn Heb “because and in because,” a double expression, which is used only here and in Ezek 13:10 (without the vav) for emphasis (GKC 492 §158.b).

[26:43]  ⁶ tn Heb “and their soul has abhorred.”
