10:3Therefore let us enact6 a covenant with our God to send away all these women and their offspring, in keeping with your counsel, my lord,7 and that of those who respect8 the commandments of our God. And let it be done according to the law.
Footnotes
- 6 Heb “cut.”
- 7 The vocalizes this word as a plural, which could be understood as a reference to God. But the context seems to suggest that a human lord is intended. The apparatus of suggests repointing the word as a singular (“my lord”), but this is unnecessary. The plural (“my lords”) can be understood in an honorific sense even when a human being is in view. Most English versions regard this as a reference to Ezra, so the present translation supplies “your” before “counsel” to make this clear.
- 8 Heb “who tremble at”; , “who fear.”
