Footnotes

  1. 24 Heb “he”; the referent (God) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  2. 25 This is the reading following the Qere. The Kethib and the and the suggest a reading יָשִׂים (yasim, “if he [God] recalls”). But this would require leaving out “his heart,” and would also require redividing the verse to make “his spirit” the object. It makes better parallelism, but may require too many changes.
