Nehemia 9:38
Konteks9:38 (10:1) 2 “Because of all of this we are entering into a binding covenant 3 in written form; 4 our leaders, our Levites, and our priests have affixed their names 5 on the sealed document.”
[7:64] 1 tn Heb “they were desecrated.”
[9:38] 2 sn Beginning with 9:38, the verse numbers through 10:39 in the English Bible differ from the verse numbers in the Hebrew text (BHS), with 9:38 ET = 10:1 HT, 10:1 ET = 10:2 HT, 10:2 ET = 10:3 HT, etc., through 10:39 ET = 10:40 HT. Beginning with 11:1 the verse numbers in the ET and HT are again the same.
[9:38] 3 tn Heb “we are cutting.”
[9:38] 4 tn Heb “and writing.”
[9:38] 5 tn Heb “our leaders, our Levites, and our priests on the sealed document.” The Hebrew text is elliptical here; the words “have affixed their names” are supplied in the translation for clarity and for stylistic reasons. Cf. v. 2.
