[9:10]  ¹ tn Heb “signs and wonders.” This phrase is a hendiadys. The second noun functions adjectivally, while the first noun retains its full nominal sense: “awesome signs” or “miraculous signs.”

[9:10]  ² tn Heb “they”; the referent (the Egyptians) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[9:10]  ³ tn Or “arrogantly” (so NASB); NRSV “insolently.”

[48:9]  ⁴ tn Heb “for the sake of my name” (so NAB, NASB); NLT “for my own sake.”

[48:9]  ⁵ tn Heb “and my praise.” לְמַעַן (lÿma’an, “for the sake of”) is understood by ellipsis (note the preceding line).

[48:9]  ⁶ tn Heb “I restrain [myself] concerning you not to cut you off.”

[63:12]  ⁷ tn Heb “who caused to go at the right hand of Moses the arm of his splendor.”

[63:12]  ⁸ tn Heb “making for himself a lasting name.”

[20:9]  ⁹ tn Heb “for the sake of my name.”

[20:9]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “before the eyes of the nations in whose midst they were.”

[20:9]  ¹¹ tn Heb “to whom I made myself known before their eyes to bring them out from the land of Egypt.” The translation understands the infinitive construct (“to bring them out”) as indicating manner. God’s deliverance of his people from Egypt was an act of self-revelation in that it displayed his power and his commitment to his promises.
