“And He Made His Grave with the Wicked, and with the Rich in His Death”

George Reynolds, Janne M. Sjodahl

Some commentators have thought that the words, kibro, "His grave," and bemothaiv, "in His death," have been transposed by editors or secretaries who copied the words of the prophet. They suggest that a better translation of them would be:

Yea, His death was appointed among the wicked;

And with a rich man, His tomb.

If we agree that such a transposition was actually made, the text is more agreeable to our understanding.
