Psalms 106:29-30

Context

106:29 They made the Lord angry 1  by their actions,

and a plague broke out among them.

106:30 Phinehas took a stand and intervened, 2 

and the plague subsided.

1 tn Heb “They made angry [him].” The pronominal suffix is omitted here, but does appear in a few medieval Hebrew mss. Perhaps it was accidentally left off, an original וַיַּכְעִיסוּהוּ (vayyakhisuhu) being misread as וַיַּכְעִיסוּ (vayyakhisu). In the translation the referent of the pronominal suffix (the Lord) has been specified for clarity to avoid confusion with Baal of Peor (mentioned in the previous verse).

2 sn The intervention of Phinehas is recounted in Num 25:7-8.
