Numbers 25:12

Context
25:12 Therefore, announce: 1  ‘I am going to give 2  to him my covenant of peace. 3 

1 tn Heb “say.”

2 tn Here too the grammar expresses an imminent future by using the particle הִנְנִי (hinni) before the participle נֹתֵן (noten) – “here I am giving,” or “I am about to give.”

3 tn Or “my pledge of friendship” (NAB), or “my pact of friendship” (NJPS). This is the designation of the leadership of the priestly ministry. The terminology is used again in the rebuke of the priests in Mal 2.
