The Song of Songs 6:7

6:7 Like a slice of pomegranate

is your forehead ¹  behind your veil.

Genesis 32:10

32:10 I am not worthy of all the faithful love ²  you have shown ³  your servant. With only my walking stick ⁴  I crossed the Jordan, ⁵  but now I have become two camps.

Ezra 9:6

9:6 I prayed, ⁶ 

“O my God, I am ashamed and embarrassed to lift my face to you, my God! For our iniquities have climbed higher than our heads, and our guilt extends to the heavens.

Ezekiel 16:63

16:63 Then you will remember, be ashamed, and remain silent ⁷  when I make atonement for all you have done, ⁸  declares the sovereign Lord.’”

[6:7]  ¹ tn Alternately, “your cheeks” or “your temple.” See 4:3.

[32:10]  ³ tn Heb “you have done with.”

[32:10]  ⁴ tn Heb “for with my staff.” The Hebrew word מַקֵל (maqel), traditionally translated “staff,” has been rendered as “walking stick” because a “staff” in contemporary English refers typically to the support personnel in an organization.

[9:6]  ⁶ tn Heb “I said.”

[16:63]  ⁷ tn Heb “and your mouth will not be open any longer.”
