Numbers 1:20

1:20 And they were as follows:

The descendants of Reuben, the firstborn son of Israel: According to the records of their clans and families, all the males twenty years old or older who could serve in the army were listed by name individually.

Numbers 24:13

24:13 ‘If Balak would give me his palace full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond ¹  the commandment ²  of the Lord to do either good or evil of my own will, ³  but whatever the Lord tells me I must speak’?

Numbers 32:17

32:17 but we will maintain ourselves in armed readiness ⁴  and go before the Israelites until whenever we have brought them to their place. Our descendants will be living in fortified towns as a protection against ⁵  the inhabitants of the land.

[24:13]  ¹ tn Heb “I am not able to go beyond.”

[24:13]  ² tn Heb “mouth.”

[24:13]  ³ tn Heb “from my heart.”

[32:17]  ¹ tn The MT has חֻשִׁים (khushim); the verbal root is חוּשׁ (khush, “to make haste” or “hurry”). But in light of the Greek and Latin Vulgate the Hebrew should probably be emended to חֲמֻשִׁים (hamushim), a qal passive participle meaning “in battle array.” See further BDB 301 s.v. I חוּשׁ, BDB 332 s.v. חֲמֻשִׁים; HALOT 300 s.v. I חושׁ, חישׁ; HALOT 331 s.v. I חמשׁ.

[32:17]  ² tn Heb “from before.”
