  • On the day of trouble (בְּיֹ֣ום צָרָ֑ה): We have analyzed בְּיֹ֣ום צָרָ֑ה with a temporal rendering[1], so on the day when trouble comes >> on the day of trouble.[2]
  1. ↑ "A temporal genitive involves a verbal action G associated with a time C (often יֹום)" (OBHS 9.5.1, page 145).
  2. ↑ Other modern translations for בְּיֹ֣ום צָרָ֑ה include "in the day of trouble" (ESV, NRSV) and "when you are in distress" (NIV).
