Bilangan 16:38

[9:21]  ¹ tn The construction is the same in the preceding verse.

[9:21]  ² tn “Only” is supplied to reflect the contrast between the two verses.

[9:21]  ³ tn The construction in this half of the verse uses two vav (ו) consecutive clauses. The first is subordinated to the second as a temporal clause: “when…then….”

[16:5]  ⁴ tn Heb “him.”

[16:38]  ⁵ tn The expression is “in/by/against their life.” That they sinned against their life means that they brought ruin to themselves.

[16:38]  ⁶ tn The form is the perfect tense with vav (ו) consecutive. But there is no expressed subject for “and they shall make them,” and so it may be treated as a passive (“they shall [must] be made”).
