TSNTyndale Study Notes:

8:12-13 Injustice is momentary and does not upset God’s plans for justice (3:16-17; 12:14). In reality, wickedness does not pay.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-numbers

(Occurrence 0) a hundred times

(Some words not found in UHB: which/who sinner producing evil hundred_of and,prolongs_~_life to=him/it that/for/because/then/when also/yet know I which/who will_belong well with,fear the=ʼₑlhīmv which/who fear at,before,presence,him )

“100 times”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

(Occurrence 0) it will be better for those who respect God

(Some words not found in UHB: which/who sinner producing evil hundred_of and,prolongs_~_life to=him/it that/for/because/then/when also/yet know I which/who will_belong well with,fear the=ʼₑlhīmv which/who fear at,before,presence,him )

The phrase “it will be better” is an idiom. Alternate translation: “life will be better for those who respect God”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

(Occurrence 0) who respect God … who stand before him and show him respect

(Some words not found in UHB: which/who sinner producing evil hundred_of and,prolongs_~_life to=him/it that/for/because/then/when also/yet know I which/who will_belong well with,fear the=ʼₑlhīmv which/who fear at,before,presence,him )

These two phrases mean basically the same thing and are combined to emphasize people respecting God.
