Bilangan 14:41

14:41 But Moses said, “Why ³  are you now transgressing the commandment ⁴  of the Lord? It will not succeed!

[3:16]  ¹ tn Heb “at the mouth of the Lord.”

[3:16]  ² tn The Pual perfect may be given the past perfect translation in this sentence because the act of commanding preceded the act of numbering.

[14:41]  ³ tn The line literally has, “Why is this [that] you are transgressing….” The demonstrative pronoun is enclitic; it brings the force of “why in the world are you doing this now?”

[14:41]  ⁴ tn Heb “mouth.”
