NET © Notes

sn The “way of the Lord” is an idiom for God’s providential administration of life; it is what the Lord does (“way” being a hypocatastasis).

tn The comparative “like” does not appear in the Hebrew text, but is implied by the metaphor; it is supplied in the translation for the sake of clarity.

tn Heb “for the one with integrity” (לַתֹּם, latom).

tn Or “ruin” (so NIV).

tn Heb “those who practice iniquity.”
