and foreigners advanced to his gates.53
When they cast lots54 over Jerusalem,55
you behaved as though you were in league56 with them.
Footnotes
- 51 Heb “in the day of your standing”; “On the day when you stood by.”
- 52 Or perhaps, “wealth” (so , , , ). The Hebrew word is somewhat ambiguous here. This word also appears in v. 13, where it clearly refers to wealth.
- 53 The present translation follows the Qere which reads the plural (“gates”) rather than the singular.
- 54 Casting lots seems to be a way of deciding who would gain control over material possessions and enslaved peoples following a military victory.
- 55 For location see ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; .
- 56 Heb “like one from them”; “You too were as one of them.”
