Mazmur 106:29

106:29 They made the Lord angry ¹  by their actions,

and a plague broke out among them.

Mazmur 106:40

106:40 So the Lord was angry with his people ² 

and despised the people who belong to him. ³ 

[106:29]  ¹ tn Heb “They made angry [him].” The pronominal suffix is omitted here, but does appear in a few medieval Hebrew mss. Perhaps it was accidentally left off, an original וַיַּכְעִיסוּהוּ (vayyakh’isuhu) being misread as וַיַּכְעִיסוּ (vayyakh’isu). In the translation the referent of the pronominal suffix (the Lord) has been specified for clarity to avoid confusion with Baal of Peor (mentioned in the previous verse).

[106:40]  ² tn Heb “the anger of the Lord burned against his people.”

[106:40]  ³ tn Heb “his inheritance.”
