[7:1] 1 tn Heb “for you I see [as] godly before me in this generation.” The direct object (“you”) is placed first in the clause to give it prominence. The verb “to see” here signifies God’s evaluative discernment.
[7:4] 2 tn Heb “for seven days yet,” meaning “after [or “in”] seven days.”
[7:4] 3 tn The Hiphil participle מַמְטִיר (mamtir, “cause to rain”) here expresses the certainty of the act in the imminent future.
[7:7] 4 tn The preposition מִן (min) is causal here, explaining why Noah and his family entered the ark.
