If you are reading a text other than the MT please inform us. Otherwise, we have to conclude that you are *not* reading the MT.
Example: Verse 7's `aphar, which at least you agree means dust, is not in the same clause as vayyippax as your below translation indicates. That is indeed your error regarding syntax.
We understand your shtick is that of the iconoclast, but is the MT really your target, too? Out of one side of your mouth you hold to the most reactionary of grammatical views of the wayyiqtol verb form (vav-converted tense).
