62 Heb “they”; the referent has been specified in the translation for clarity.
63 Heb “to their mother,” understood as a collective singular.
64 Heb “Where is bread and wine?” The terms “bread” and “wine” are synecdoches of specific (= bread, wine) for general (= food, drink).
65 Heb “as they faint” or “when they faint.”
66 Heb “as their life is poured out.” The term בְּהִשְׁתַּפֵּךְ (béhishtappekh), Hitpael infinitive construct + the preposition בּ (bet), from שָׁפַךְ (shafakh, “to pour out”) may be rendered “as they expire” ( 1050 שָׁפַךְ), referring to the process of dying.
