[69:10]  1 sn Fasting was a practice of mourners. By refraining from normal activities such as eating food, the mourner demonstrated the sincerity of his sorrow.

[69:10]  2 tn Heb “and it becomes insults to me.”

[69:11]  3 tn Heb “and I am an object of ridicule to them.”

[30:25]  4 tn Heb “for the hard of day.”

[5:44]  5 tc Most mss ([D] L [W] Θ Ë13 33 Ï lat) read “bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you,” before “those who persecute you.” But this is surely a motivated reading, importing the longer form of this aphorism from Luke 6:27-28. The shorter text is found in א B Ë1 pc sa, as well as several fathers and versional witnesses.
