That is the oddest thing I think I've ever seen in a translation of any kind, that wasn't some fragmentary Sumerian inscription or Qumran flake, or the like. What is that doing in an otherwise reliable translation of the Scriptures? That is the best they could do to make that place readable?
I am looking at the electronic version, after all. What do the print versions say? Same garble?
