1 tc Smr has the singular rather than the plural “you” of the MT, which brings this verb form into line with the ones surrounding it. 2 tn Heb “You shall not do injustice in judgment” (NASB similar); cf. NIV “do not pervert justice.” 3 tn Heb “You shall not lift up faces of poor [people] and you shall not honor faces of great.” 4 tn Heb “In righteousness you shall judge your fellow citizen.” |
