Proverbs 6:30

Context

6:30 People 1  do not despise a thief when he steals

to fulfill his need 2  when he is hungry.

1 tn Heb “they do not despise.”

2 tn Heb “himself” or “his life.” Since the word נֶפֶשׁ (nefesh, traditionally “soul”) refers to the whole person, body and soul, and since it has a basic idea of the bundle of appetites that make up a person, the use here for satisfying his hunger is appropriate.
