1:17The grains of seed52 have shriveled beneath their shovels.53
Storehouses have been decimated
and granaries have been torn down, for the grain has dried up.
Footnotes
- 52 Heb “seed.” The phrase “the grains of” does not appear in the Hebrew, but has been supplied in the translation for the sake of clarity and smoothness.
- 53 This line is textually uncertain. The reads “the seed shrivels in their shovels/clods.” One Qumran manuscript (4QXXIIc) reads “the heifers decay in [their] s[talls].” reads “the heifers leap in their stalls.” These two lines of v. 17 comprise only four words in the Hebrew; three of the four are found only here in the OT. The translation and meaning are rather uncertain. A number of English versions render the word translated “shovels” as “clods,” referring to lumps of soil (e.g., , , , , ).
