[5:11] 1 tn Heb “at your end.”
[5:11] 2 tn The form is the perfect tense with the vav consecutive; it is equal to a specific future within this context.
[5:11] 3 tn Heb “in the finishing of your flesh and your body.” The construction uses the Qal infinitive construct of כָּלָה (calah) in a temporal clause; the verb means “be complete, at an end, finished, spent.”
[19:20] 4 sn The advice refers in all probability to the teachings of the sages that will make one wise.
[19:20] 5 tn The proverb is one continuous thought, but the second half of the verse provides the purpose for the imperatives of the first half.
[19:20] 6 tn The imperfect tense has the nuance of a final imperfect in a purpose clause, and so is translated “that you may become wise” (cf. NAB, NRSV).
[19:20] 7 tn Heb “become wise in your latter end” (cf. KJV, ASV) which could obviously be misunderstood.
