1 tn The infinitive construct “calling out” functions epexegetically in the sentence, explaining how the previous action was accomplished. 2 tn The term “her” does not appear in the Hebrew text, but is supplied for the sake of clarity and smoothness. 3 tn The noun is a genitive of location after the construct participle. Its parallel word is also an adverbial accusative of location. 4 tn The participle modifies the participle in the first colon. To describe the passers-by in this context as those “who go straight” means that they are quiet and unwary. |
