NETBible

Do not let your heart envy 1  sinners, but rather be zealous in fearing the Lord 2  all the time.

NET Notes

tn The verb in this line is אַל־יְקַנֵּא (’al-yÿqanne’), the Piel jussive negated. The verb means “to be jealous, to be zealous”; it describes passionate intensity for something. In English, if the object is illegitimate, it is called “envy”; if it is correct, it is called “zeal.” Here the warning is not to envy the sinners. The second colon could use the verb in the positive sense to mean “but rather let your passion burn for the fear of the Lord.”

tn Heb “the fear of the Lord.” This expression features an objective genitive: “fearing the Lord.”
