פֶּן־יֹאמְר֗וּ הָאָרֶץ֮ אֲשֶׁ֣ר הוֹצֵאתָ֣נוּ מִשָּׁם֒ מִבְּלִי֙ יְכֹ֣לֶת יְהוָ֔ה לַהֲבִיאָ֕ם אֶל־הָאָ֖רֶץ אֲשֶׁר־דִּבֶּ֣ר לָהֶ֑ם וּמִשִּׂנְאָת֣וֹ אוֹתָ֔ם הוֹצִיאָ֖ם לַהֲמִתָ֥ם בַּמִּדְבָּֽר׃
supaya jangan penduduk negeri tempat Engkau membawa kami keluar itu berkata: ‘Karena Yang Mahakekal tidak sanggup membawa mereka masuk ke negeri yang telah dijanjikan-Nya kepada mereka, dan karena Ia membenci mereka, maka Ia membawa mereka keluar untuk membunuh mereka di padang gurun.’
Targum Jonathan
lest the inhabitants of the land from whence Thou hast led us say, that power failed before the Lord to bring them into the land of which Thou hast told them, and that because Thou didst hate them, therefore didst Thou lead them out to kill them in the wilderness.
