I question about one word here נפשׁ NP$, but it makes a big difference.

The LXX translates it as ψυχη but the context and form indicate that this
should be a niphal verb. If so, what would be its meaning? Would it be
related to פושׁ PW$ “to paw out” found in Jeremiah 50:11? Or a verb from the
same root as פשׁ P$ “foolish arrogance” found in Job 35:15?
What do you all think?
How exactly would you translate the entire thing then?
