22:1 When you see 1 your neighbor’s 2 ox or sheep going astray, do not ignore it; 3 you must return it without fail 4 to your neighbor.
1 tn Heb “you must not see,” but, if translated literally into English, the statement is misleading.
2 tn Heb “brother’s” (also later in this verse). In this context it is not limited to one’s siblings, however; cf. NAB “your kinsman’s.”
3 tn Heb “hide yourself.”
4 tn The Hebrew text uses the infinitive absolute for emphasis, which the translation indicates with the words “without fail.”
