¹ tn Heb “who is there of all flesh.”

² tn Heb “according to all the desire of his soul.”

³ tn Or “sojourning.” The verb used here refers to living temporarily in a place, not settling down.

⁴ tn The antecedent of the relative pronoun is “cities.”

⁵ tn Heb “any breath.”

⁶ tn Heb “your brothers,” but not limited only to actual siblings; cf. NASB “your (+ own NAB) countrymen.”

⁷ tn Heb “who are in your land in your gates.” The word “living” is supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

⁸ tn Heb “stiffness of neck” (cf. KJV, NAB, NIV). See note on the word “stubborn” in Deut 9:6.

⁹ tn Heb “How much more after my death?” The Hebrew text has a sarcastic rhetorical question here; the translation seeks to bring out the force of the question.
