| NET Notes |
1 tc The BHS editors suggest reading צֻוֵּאתִי (tsuvve’ti, “and I was appointed”) rather than the reading of the MT, אֹתִי צִוָּה (tsivvah ’oti, “he appointed me”). 2 tc The translation reads with one medieval Hebrew 3 tn Heb “brothers.” 4 tn Heb “the food of the governor.” Cf. v. 18. |
