v. 11 – In light of parallels such as Mic 7:5 (כִּימֵ֥י צֵאתְךָ֖ מֵאֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרָ֑יִם אַרְאֶ֖נּוּ נִפְלָאֽוֹת), we understand the relative clause to modify only נִפְלְאוֹתָ֗יו, limiting the syntax to only the second poetic line of the verse with the verb elided. Alternatively, qal ראה is found with עֲלִילָה in Ezek 14:22 (וּרְאִיתֶ֥ם אֶת־דַּרְכָּ֖ם וְאֶת־עֲלִֽילוֹתָ֑ם), so עֲלִילוֹתָ֑יו could also be included within the scope of the relative clause.

-|Text=Following most modern translations, it may seem preferable to limit the relative clause to modifying only נִפְלְאוֹתָ֗יו, light of parallels such as Mic 7:5 (כִּימֵ֥י צֵאתְךָ֖ מֵאֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרָ֑יִם אַרְאֶ֖נּוּ נִפְלָאֽוֹת). Nevertheless, qal ראה is also found with עֲלִילָה in Ezek 14:22 (וּרְאִיתֶ֥ם אֶת־דַּרְכָּ֖ם וְאֶת־עֲלִֽילוֹתָ֑ם), so there does not seem to be a good reason to exclude עֲלִילוֹתָ֑יו from the scope of the relative clause.
