Nehemiah 9:10

9:10 You performed awesome signs ¹  against Pharaoh, against his servants, and against all the people of his land, for you knew that the Egyptians ²  had acted presumptuously ³  against them. You made for yourself a name that is celebrated to this day.

[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.”
