Verse 8
Show yourselves men - התאששו hithoshashu . This word is rather of doubtful derivation and signification. It occurs only in this place: and some of the ancient interpreters seem to have had something different in their copies. The Vulgate read התבששו hithbosheshu , take shame to yourselves; the Syriac התבוננו hithbonenu , consider with yourselves; the Septuagint στεναξετε· perhaps התאבלו hithabbelu , groan or mourn, within yourselves. Several MSS. read התאוששו hithosheshu , but without any help to the sense.
