38 Sedan lade han käpparna, som han hade skalat, i rännorna eller vattenhoarna dit hjordarna kommo för att dricka, så att djuren hade dem framför sig; och de hade just sin parningstid, när de nu kommo för att dricka.

2158. Pass not I pray from over Thy servant. That this signifies that He intensely desired, appears from what has just been said, the case being much the same, namely, that here also there is deference, which is expressed in this way, and at the same time the affection of desire that what He began to perceive should not pass away.
