Footnotes

  1. 17 The Hebrew text uses the infinitive absolute before both verbs. The translation indicates the emphasis with the words “be sure to” and “generously,” respectively.
  2. 18 Heb “whatever his need that he needs for himself.” This redundant expression has been simplified in the translation for stylistic reasons.
