Keluaran 34:12
Konteks34:12 Be careful not to make 1 a covenant with the inhabitants of the land where you are going, lest it become a snare 2 among you.
Ulangan 23:6
Konteks23:6 You must not seek peace and prosperity for them through all the ages to come.
Ezra 9:12
Konteks9:12 Therefore do not give your daughters in marriage to their sons, and do not take their daughters in marriage for your sons. Do not ever seek their peace or welfare, so that you may be strong and may eat the good of the land and may leave it as an inheritance for your children 3 forever.’
[34:12] 1 tn The exact expression is “take heed to yourself lest you make.” It is the second use of this verb in the duties, now in the Niphal stem. To take heed to yourself means to watch yourself, be sure not to do something. Here, if they failed to do this, they would end up making entangling treaties.
[34:12] 2 sn A snare would be a trap, an allurement to ruin. See Exod 23:33.
[9:12] 3 tn Heb “sons”; cf. KJV, NAB, NIV, NLT “children”; NCV, TEV “descendants.”
