NET Notes |
1 sn The contrast is between being rescued or delivered (נָצַל, natsal) and being captured (לָכַד, lakhad). Righteousness is freeing; [evil] desires are enslaving. 2 tn Heb “taken captive” (so NRSV); NIV, TEV “are trapped.” 3 tn Heb “but by the desire of the faithless are they taken captive.” |
