NET © Notes

tn Or “the voice of the Lord is calling.” The translation understands קוֹל (qol, “voice”) as equivalent to an imperative.

tn Heb “one who sees your name is wisdom.” It is probably better to emend יִרְאֶה (yireh, “he sees”) to יִרְאָה (yirah, “fearing”). One may then translate, “fearing your name is wisdom.” The Lord’s “name” here stands by metonymy for his authority.

tn Heb (apparently) “Listen [to] the staff and the one who appointed it.” Verse 10 then begins with עוֹד (yod, “still” or “again”). The translation assumes an emendation to שִׁמְעוּ מַטֶּה וּמוֹעֵד הָעִיר (shimu matteh umoed hair, “listen, O tribe and the assembly of the city”).
