[90:7]  1 tn Or “for.”

[19:3]  2 tn Heb “the folly of a man.”

[19:3]  3 tn The verb סָלַף (salaf) normally means “to twist; to pervert; to overturn,” but in this context it means “to subvert” (BDB 701 s.v.); cf. ASV “subverteth.”

[19:3]  4 tn The clause begins with vav on the nonverb phrase “against the Lord.” While clause structure and word order is less compelling in a book like Proverbs, this fits well as a circumstantial clause indicating concession.

[19:3]  5 sn The “heart raging” is a metonymy of cause (or adjunct); it represents the emotions that will lead to blaming God for the frustration. Genesis 42:28 offers a calmer illustration of this as the brothers ask what God was doing to them.

[57:16]  6 tn Or perhaps, “argue,” or “accuse” (so NAB, NIV, NRSV).

[57:16]  7 tn Heb “for a spirit from before me would be faint.”

[12:5]  8 tn Or “disregard,” “think little of.”

[12:5]  9 tn Or “reproves,” “rebukes.” The Greek verb ἐλέγχω (elencw) implies exposing someone’s sin in order to bring correction.
