30:30 My skin has turned dark on me; 1
my body 2 is hot with fever. 3
1 tn The MT has “become dark from upon me,” prompting some editions to supply the verb “falls from me” (RSV, NRSV), or “peels” (NIV).
2 tn The word “my bones” may be taken as a metonymy of subject, the bony framework indicating the whole body.
3 tn The word חֹרֶב (khorev) also means “heat.” The heat in this line is not that of the sun, but obviously a fever.
