2:20At that time42 men will throw
their silver and gold idols,
which they made for themselves to worship,43

Footnotes
- 42 Or “in that day” ().
- 43 Or “bow down to.”
- 44 Heb “to the shrews and to the bats.” On the meaning of חֲפַרְפָּרָה (khafarparah, “shrew”), see חֲפַרְפָּרָה. The text as it stands (לַחְפֹּר פֵּרוֹת, perot lakhpor), makes no sense. Based on Theodotion’s transliteration and a similar reading in the Qumran scroll 1QIsaa, most scholars suggest that the mistakenly divided a noun (a ) that should be translated “moles,” “shrews,” or “rodents.”
