[19:27]  ¹ tn The words “and went” are supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[22:3]  ² tn Heb “Abraham rose up early in the morning and saddled his donkey.”

[22:3]  ³ tn Heb “he arose and he went.”

[24:54]  ⁴ tn Heb “And they ate and drank, he and the men who [were] with him and they spent the night.”

[24:54]  ⁵ tn Heb “Send me away to my master.”

[26:31]  ⁶ tn Heb “and they got up early and they swore an oath, a man to his brother.”

[26:31]  ⁷ tn Heb “and they went from him in peace.”

[119:60]  ⁸ tn Heb “I hurry and I do not delay to keep your commands.”

[27:14]  ⁹ tn The verse begins with the Piel participle from בָּרַךְ (barach). It could be taken as the subject, with the resulting translation: “Blessing…will be counted as a curse.” However, that would be rather awkward. So it is preferable to take the first line as the condition (“if someone blesses”) and the second as the consequence (“[then] it will be counted”).

[27:14]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “rising early in the morning” (so KJV, ASV). The infinitive explains the verb “bless,” giving the circumstances of its action. The individual rises early to give his blessing.

[27:14]  ¹¹ sn The point of the proverb is that loud and untimely greetings are not appreciated. What was given as a “blessing” will be considered a “curse” – the two words being antonyms. The proverb makes the point that how, when, and why they say what they say is important too (D. Kidner, Proverbs [TOTC], 166).

[9:10]  ¹² tn Heb “Whatever your hand finds to do.”

[9:10]  ¹³ tn Heb “Sheol.”

[9:10]  ¹⁴ tn Or “where you are about to go.”
