1 tn Heb “Look! We are about to enter the land.”
2 tn Heb “the cord of this red thread.”
3 tn Heb “and your father and your mother and your brothers and all the house of your father gather to yourself to the house.”
4 tn Heb “just as the Lord your God did to the Red Sea when he dried [it] up before us while we crossed over.”
5 tn Or “trouble.” The word is “achor” in Hebrew (also in the following clause).
6 tc Heb “and they burned them with fire and they stoned them with stones.” These words are somewhat parenthetical in nature and are omitted in the LXX; they may represent a later scribal addition.
7 tn Heb “The Lord commanded Moses to assign to us an inheritance in the midst of our brothers.” Since Zelophehad had no sons, “brothers” must refer to their uncles, as the next sentence makes clear.
8 tn Heb “he.” The referent is probably Joshua, although Eleazar is mentioned first in the preceding list.
9 tn Heb “and he assigned to them in accordance with the mouth [i.e., command] of the Lord an inheritance in the midst of the brothers of their father.”
10 sn Israel’s God is here identified with three names: (1) אֵל (’el), “El” (or “God”); (2) אֱלֹהִים (’elohim), “Elohim” (or “God”), and (3) יְהוָה (yÿhvah), “Yahweh” (or “the Lord”). The name אֵל (’el, “El”) is often compounded with titles, for example, El Elyon, “God Most High.”
11 tn Heb “he knows.”
12 tn Heb “if in rebellion or if in unfaithfulness against the Lord.”
13 tn Heb “do not save us.” The verb form is singular, being addressed to either collective Israel or the Lord himself. The LXX translates in the third person.
14 tn Heb “by building.” The prepositional phrase may be subordinated to what precedes, “if in unfaithfulness…by building.”
15 tn Heb “or if to offer up.”
16 tn Heb “or if to make.”
17 tn Or “peace offerings.”
18 tn Heb “the Lord, he will seek.” Perhaps this is a self-imprecation in an oath, “may the Lord himself punish us.”
19 tn Heb “You have no portion in the Lord.”
20 tn Heb “fearing.”
21 tn Or “will serve.”
22 tn Heb “all the words of the Lord which he spoke with us.”
23 tn Or “lest,” “so that you might not.”
