Footnotes

  1. 23 The Hebrew text uses the infinitive absolute for emphasis, which the translation indicates with “by all means.”
  2. 24 Heb “your heart must not be grieved in giving to him.” The 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.
