Kejadian 26:29

26:29 so that ¹  you will not do us any harm, just as we have not harmed ²  you, but have always treated you well ³  before sending you away ⁴  in peace. Now you are blessed by the Lord.” ⁵ 

Kejadian 49:23

49:23 The archers will attack him, ⁶ 

they will shoot at him and oppose him.

¹ tn The oath formula is used: “if you do us harm” means “so that you will not do.”

² tn Heb “touched.”

³ tn Heb “and just as we have done only good with you.”

⁴ tn Heb “and we sent you away.”

⁵ tn The Philistine leaders are making an observation, not pronouncing a blessing, so the translation reads “you are blessed” rather than “may you be blessed” (cf. NAB).

⁶ tn The verb forms in vv. 23-24 are used in a rhetorical manner, describing future events as if they had already taken place.
