32:20 you will be blessed,
you who plant seed by all the banks of the streams, 1
you who let your ox and donkey graze. 2
61:9 Their descendants will be known among the nations,
their offspring among the peoples.
All who see them will recognize that
the Lord has blessed them.” 3
1 tn Heb “by all the waters.”
2 tn Heb “who set free the foot of the ox and donkey”; NIV “letting your cattle and donkeys range free.”
sn This verse seems to anticipate a time when fertile land is available to cultivate and crops are so abundant that the farm animals can be allowed to graze freely.
3 tn Heb “all who see them will recognize them, that they [are] descendants [whom] the Lord has blessed.”
