- Septuagint (Swete)
- καὶ ἐπηρώτησεν ὁ βασιλεὺς τὴν γυναῖκα, καὶ διηγήσατο αὐτῷ· καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῇ ὁ βασιλεὺς εὐνοῦχον ἕνα λέγων Ἐπίστρεψον πάντα αὐτῆς τὰ γενήματα τοῦ ἀγροῦ, ἀπὸ τῆς ἡμέρας ἧς κατέλιπεν τὴν γῆν ἕως τοῦ νῦν.
- Hebrew (WLC)
- וַיִּשְׁאַ֥ל הַמֶּ֛לֶךְ לָאִשָּׁ֖ה וַתְּסַפֶּר ל֑וֹ וַיִּתֶּן לָ֣הּ הַמֶּלֶךְ֩ סָרִ֨יס אֶחָ֜ד לֵאמֹ֗ר הָשֵׁ֤יב אֶת כָּל אֲשֶׁר לָהּ֙ וְאֵת֙ כָּל תְּבוּאֹ֣ת הַשָּׂדֶ֔ה מִיּ֛וֹם עָזְבָ֥ה אֶת הָאָ֖רֶץ וְעַד עָֽתָּה
Haydock's commentary
Restore. "Restituere est possessorem facere fructusque reddere." (Caius.)
Some think that the lands had been confiscated to the king, as being abandoned; or his authority was requisite, at least, to make the present occupiers give them up.
