1 tn Heb “to Noah and to his sons with him, saying.”
2 tn Heb “and he swore to him concerning this matter.”
3 tn Heb “and the one.” The article indicates that the individual is vivid in the mind of the narrator, yet it is not important to identify him by name.
4 tn Heb “at the lodging place.”
5 tn Heb “and look, it [was] in the mouth of his sack.” By the use of the particle הִנֵּה (hinneh, “look”), the narrator invites the reader to look through the eyes of the character and thereby draws attention to the money.
6 tn The perfect verbal form is used rhetorically, describing coming events as though they have already taken place.
7 tn Heb “was gathered.”
