NET Notes

¹tc The MT reads, “their measuring line” (קוּם, qum). The noun קַו (qav, “measuring line”) makes no sense in this context. The reading קוֹלָם (qolam, “their voice”) which is supported by the LXX, is preferable.

²tn Heb “goes out,” or “proceeds forth.”

³tn Heb “their” (see the note on the word “its” in v. 3).

⁴tn The verb is supplied in the translation. The Hebrew text has no verb; יָצָא (yatsa’, “goes out”) is understood by ellipsis.

⁵tn Heb “to the end of the world.”

⁶tn Heb “in them” (i.e., the heavens).

⁷sn He has pitched a tent for the sun. The personified sun emerges from this “tent” in order to make its daytime journey across the sky. So the “tent” must refer metaphorically to the place where the sun goes to rest during the night.
