Footnotes

  1. 70 The clause begins with the positive oath formula, אִם־לֹא (’im-lo’).
  2. 71 The word “proudly” is not in the Hebrew text, but is implied (note the following line).
  3. 72 This verb is only found in Prov 6:21. But E. Dhorme (Job, 470) suggests that (with metathesis) we have a derivative מַעֲדַנּוֹת (ma’adannot, “bonds; ties”) in 38:31.
