32:51 for both of you ²⁶  rebelled against me among the Israelites at the waters of Meribah Kadesh in the desert of Zin when you did not show me proper respect ²⁷  among the Israelites.

¹ tn Heb “the Lord your God.” See note on “he” in 4:3.

² tn Heb “he will not drop you,” i.e., “will not abandon you” (cf. NAB, NIV, NRSV, NLT).

³ tn Or “will not.” The translation understands the imperfect verbal form to have an added nuance of capability here.

⁴ tn Heb “your neighbor.” Clearly this is intended generically, however, and not to be limited only to those persons who live nearby (frequently the way “neighbor” is understood in contemporary contexts). So also in v. 20.

⁵ tn Heb “lest the anger of the Lord your God be kindled against you and destroy you from upon the surface of the ground.” Cf. KJV, ASV “from off the face of the earth.”

⁶ tn Heb “the Lord your God.” The pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy.

⁷ tn In the Hebrew text the infinitive absolute before the finite verb emphasizes the statement. The imperfect has an obligatory nuance here. Cf. ASV “shalt (must NRSV) utterly destroy them”; CEV “must destroy them without mercy.”

⁸ tn Heb “covenant” (so NASB, NRSV); TEV “alliance.”

⁹ tn Heb “you will destroy their name from under heaven” (cf. KJV); NRSV “blot out their name from under heaven.”

¹⁰ tn The Hebrew text uses the infinitive absolute for emphasis, which the translation indicates with “by all means.”

¹¹ tc Heb “your heart must not be grieved in giving to him.” The LXX and Orig add, “you shall surely lend to him sufficient for his need,” a suggestion based on the same basic idea in v. 8. Such slavish adherence to stock phrases is without warrant in most cases, and certainly here.

¹² tn Heb “brother.”

¹³ tn Heb “sojourner.”

¹⁴ tn Heb “to your brother” (likewise in the following verse). Since this is not limited to actual siblings, “fellow Israelite” is used in the translation (cf. NAB, NASB “countrymen”).

¹⁵ tn Heb “grapes according to your appetite, your fullness.”

¹⁶ tn Heb “in your container”; NAB, NIV “your basket.”

¹⁷ sn For the continuation of these practices into NT times see Matt 12:1-8; Mark 2:23-28; Luke 6:1-5.

¹⁸ tn Heb “an.” By implication this is one’s own animal.

¹⁹ tn Or “in the country” (so NAB, NIV, NLT). This expression also occurs in v. 15.

²⁰ tn Heb “The Lord.” See note on “he” in 28:8.

²¹ tn Or perhaps “consumption” (so KJV, NASB, NRSV). The term is from a verbal root that indicates a weakening of one’s physical strength (cf. NAB “wasting”; NIV, NLT “wasting disease”).

²² tn Heb “hot fever”; NIV “scorching heat.”

²³ tn Or “drought” (so NIV, NRSV, NLT).

²⁴ tn Heb “from the end of the earth.”

²⁵ tn Some translations understand this to mean “like an eagle swoops down” (e.g., NAB, NASB, NIV, NRSV, NLT), comparing the swift attack of an eagle to the attack of the Israelites’ enemies.

²⁶ tn The use of the plural (“you”) in the Hebrew text suggests that Moses and Aaron are both in view here, since both had rebelled at some time or other, if not at Meribah Kadesh then elsewhere (cf. Num 20:24; 27:14).

²⁷ tn Heb “did not esteem me holy.” Cf. NIV “did not uphold my holiness”; NLT “failed to demonstrate my holiness.”
