O Lord.This verse is evidently deficient. The LXX. have [kyrios ho Theos Israel oiden,] "The Lord God of Israel doth know;" the Syraic and Arabic, "The Lord God of Israel is witness;" either of which makes good sense. But two of Dr. Kennicott's MSS. supply the word {chai,} "liveth;" and the text reads thus: "As the Lord God of Israel liveth, when I have sounded my father,--if there be good unto David, and I then send not unto thee," etc.; which is a still better sense.
Joshua 22:22; Job 31:4; Psalms 17:3; Psalms 139:1-4
sounded. Heb. searched.
Proverbs 20:5; Proverbs 25:2; Proverbs 25:3
shew it thee. Heb. uncover thine ear.
