Many thanks for the response.
Which is clear and straightforward, "us" or "him?" Also, do you have any
thoughts as to why translations differ on this? For example: KJV, NASB,
ESV have "us": NRSV, TEV, NIV have "him," although NRSV and TEV include a
footnote allowing "us" as a possibility. I gather from the NRSV footnote
that it has something to do with what version of the OT is used as the
exemplar(?)
Thanks.
