9:4

akal pura-pura ... akal(TB)/dipakainya akal pura-pura(TL) <06195 06213> [work wilily.]

bekal(TB)/utusan(TL) <06737> [ambassadors.]

The word {tzir,} an ambassador, properly denotes a hinge; because an ambassador is a person upon whom the business turns as upon a hinge. So the Latin {Cardinalis,} from {cardo,} a hinge, was the title of the prime minister of the emperor Theodosius, though now applied only to the Pope's electors and counsellors.

kirbat kirbat(TB)/kirbat ... air anggur(TL) <04997 03196> [wine bottles.]

These bottles being made of skin, were consequently liable to be rent, and capable of being mended; which is done, according to Chardin, by putting in a piece, or by gathering up the wounded piece in the manner of a purse; and sometimes by inserting a flat piece of wood.

119:83

kirbat ... tersalai(TB)/kulit ... tersalai(TL) <07008 04997> [like a bottle in the smoke.]

As the bottles in the East are made of skin, it is evident that one of these hung up in the smoke must soon be parched, shrivelled up, lose all its strength, and become unsightly and useless. Thus the Psalmist appeared to himself to have become useless and despicable, through the exhausted state of his body and mind, by long bodily afflictions and mental distress.

kulupakan(TB)/melupakan(TL) <07911> [yet do I.]

119:83

tidak kulupakan.
