NETBible

rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth,¹ and delighting² in its people.³

NET Notes

¹tn The two words are synonymous in general and so could be taken to express a superlative idea – the “whole world” (cf. NIV, NCV). But תֵּבֵל (tevel) also means the inhabited world, and so the construct may be interpreted as a partitive genitive.

²tn Heb “and my delights” [were] with/in.”

³tn Heb “the sons of man.”
