[139:8]  ¹ tn The Hebrew verb סָלַק (salaq, “to ascend”) occurs only here in the OT, but the word is well-attested in Aramaic literature from different time periods and displays a wide semantic range (see DNWSI 2:788-90).

[139:8]  ² tn Heb “look, you.”

[2:22]  ³ tn Grk “onto a bed,” in this context an idiom for severe illness (L&N 23.152).

[2:22]  ⁴ tn Or “into great distress.” The suffering here is not specified as physical or emotional, and could involve persecution.
