Christopher,

The passage is confusing. What happens if we drop the second brzl following
the LXX -- not following the LXX all the way but just to omit the second
brzl. Note the second $rytyK in 15:11 which the LXX omits. Before someone
jumps to the conclusion I am using this as **evidence** for dropping the
second brzl in 15:12 let me assure you I am not doing this, just asking you
to notice it. 

I am not sure the omission of the second brzl suggests any attractive
alternatives, but if we want to explore all the options ...


greetings,
Clay Bartholomew
