[25:12]  ¹ tn Heb “sons.”

[25:12]  ² tn Heb “and threw them from the top of the cliff.”

[25:12]  ³ tn Heb “all of them.”

[25:12]  ⁴ tn Heb “smashed in pieces.”

[37:14]  ⁵ tn Heb “to cause to fall.”

[37:14]  ⁶ tn Heb “the upright in way,” i.e., those who lead godly lives.

[37:32]  ⁷ tn Heb “an evil [one] watches the godly [one] and seeks to kill him.” The singular forms are used in a representative sense; the typical evildoer and godly individual are in view. The active participles describe characteristic behavior.

[37:33]  ⁸ tn Heb “the Lord does not abandon him into his hand or condemn him when he is judged.” The imperfects draw attention to the Lord’s characteristic behavior in this regard.
