Proverbs 4:21

Context

4:21 Do not let them depart 1  from your sight,

guard 2  them within your heart; 3 

1 tn The Hiphil form יַלִּיזוּ (yallizu) follows the Aramaic with gemination. The verb means “to turn aside; to depart” (intransitive Hiphil or inner causative).

2 tn Or “keep” (so KJV, NIV, NRSV and many others).

3 sn The words “eyes” and “heart” are metonymies of subject representing the faculties of each. Cf. CEV “think about it all.”
