Ayub 13:11

13:11 Would not his splendor ¹  terrify ²  you

and the fear he inspires ³  fall on you?

[13:11]  ¹ sn The word translated “his majesty” or “his splendor” (שְׂאֵתוֹ, sÿ’eto) forms a play on the word “show partiality” (תִּשָּׂאוּן, tissa’un) in the last verse. They are both from the verb נָשַׂא (nasa’, “to lift up”).

[13:11]  ² tn On this verb in the Piel, see 7:14.

[13:11]  ³ tn Heb “His dread”; the suffix is a subjective genitive.
