1 sn See Job 10:13ff.; 19:6ff.; and 13:24.
2 tn Heb “he”; the referent (God) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
3 tn The Hebrew means “frustrations” or “oppositions.” The RSV has “displeasure,” NIV “faults,” and NRSV “occasions.” Rashi chose the word found in Judg 14:4 – with metathesis – meaning “pretexts” (תֹּאֲנוֹת, to’anot); this is followed by NAB, NASB.
