撒母耳記上 2:3 註釋：Rashi, Radak & Metzudat David

Do not abound in speaking so very proudly. All those who are haughty when they experience good fortune. About Penina who behaved haughtily toward her, was she speaking, according to the simple explanation. However, according to the drash, we follow Targum Yonoson's rendition [that she is referring to Nevuchadnetzar].

Do not abound: Regarding Peninah and regarding those who angered her, she said, "Do not abound in speaking uppity things."

Do not abound, etc.: She said it about Peninah and her sons, do not abound in speaking uppity things - meaning to say, pride and rudeness. And she repeated the word (elevated), to indicate great pride and its constancy.

Harshness. Strong speech. Others explain עָתָק as an expression of something which is removed [from the truth], as in "from there he moved [וַיַעְתֵּק] to the mountain."³Bereishis 12:8. [The meaning here being "let not] falsehood come out of your mouth."

For a God of knowledge is Adonoy. He knows what is in your hearts.

And by Him all actions are counted. All people's deeds are counted before Him.
