Yeremia 28:7

28:7 But listen to what I say to you and to all these people. ¹ 

Yeremia 32:10

32:10 I signed the deed of purchase, ²  sealed it, and had some men serve as witnesses to the purchase. ³  I weighed out the silver for him on a scale.

[28:7]  ¹ tn Heb “Listen to this word/message which I am about to speak in your ears and the ears of all these people.”

[32:10]  ² tn The words “of purchase” are not in the text but are implicit. The qualification is spelled out explicitly in vv. 11, 12, 13. These words are supplied in the translation for clarity. An alternative translation would be “I put the deed in writing.” However, since the same idiom כָּתַב בְּסֵפֶר (catav bÿsefer) is used later in v. 12 with respect to the witnesses, it is likely that it merely refers to signing the document.

[32:10]  ³ tn The words “to the purchase” are not in the text but are implicit in the idiom “I had some witnesses serve as witness.” The words are supplied in the translation for clarity.
