Footnotes
- 33 This word, דְּאָבָה (dé’avah) is a . But the verbal root means “to languish; to pine.” A related noun talks of dejection and despair in Deut 28:65. So here “despair” as a translation is preferable to “terror.”
- 34 Heb “fallings.”
- 35 The last clause says “it cannot be moved.” But this part will function adverbially in the sentence.
