tn Heb “watch yourself and watch your soul carefully.”

tn Heb “in order to multiply horses.” The translation uses “do so” in place of “multiply horses” to avoid redundancy (cf. NAB, NIV).

tn Heb “you must not see.” See note at 22:1.

tn Heb “and (must not) hide yourself from them.”

tn The Hebrew text uses the infinitive absolute for emphasis, which the translation indicates with “be sure.”

tn Heb “help him to lift them up.” In keeping with English style the singular is used in the translation, and the referent (“the animal”) has been specified for clarity.
