2 tn The action precedes the action of preparing the gift, and so must be translated as past perfect.

3 tn Heb “eat bread.” The imperfect verbal form is used here as a historic future (future from the perspective of the past).

4 tn Heb “into the house.”

5 tn Heb “feeders of sheep.”

6 tn Heb “for men of livestock they are.”
