Jeremiah 13:5-6

Context
13:5 So I went and buried them at Perath 1  as the Lord had ordered me to do. 13:6 Many days later the Lord said to me, “Go at once to Perath and get 2  the shorts I ordered you to bury there.”

1 tc The translation reads בִּפְרָתָה (bifratah) with 4QJera as noted in W. L. Holladay, Jeremiah (Hermeneia), 1:393 instead of בִּפְרָת (bifrat) in the MT.

2 tn Heb “Get from there.” The words “from there” are not necessary to the English sentence. They would lead to a redundancy later in the verse, i.e., “from there…bury there.”
