Deuteronomy 28:56

Deuteronomy 32:35

32:35 I will get revenge and pay them back

at the time their foot slips;

for the day of their disaster is near,

and the impending judgment 5  is rushing upon them!”

1 tn Heb “the sole of your foot walks.” The placing of the foot symbolizes conquest and dominion, especially on land or on the necks of enemies (cf. Deut 1:36; Ps 7:13; Isa 63:3 Hab 3:19; Zech 9:13). See E. H. Merrill, NIDOTTE 1:992.

2 tn Heb “the after sea,” that is, the sea behind one when one is facing east, which is the normal OT orientation. Cf. ASV “the hinder sea.”

3 tc The LXX adds σφόδρα (sfodra, “very”) to bring the description into line with v. 54.

4 tn Heb “delicateness and tenderness.”

5 tn Heb “prepared things,” “impending things.” See BDB 800 s.v. עָתִיד.
