saken its gloryf. 46. And
it went to it and spake to it
alone, and raised it to being
a ram, and made it the prince
and leader of the sheep ; but
during all these things those
dogs oppressed the sheep.
47. And the first ram pursued
that second ram, and that
second ram arose and fled
before it ; and I saw till those
dogs pulled down the first ram.
48. And that second ram arose
and led the [little] sheep.
49. And those sheep grew and
multiplied ; but all the dogs,
and foxes, and wild boars
feared and fled before it, and
that ram butted and killed
the wild beasts, and those
' that sheep '. cl ' that ram, sheep ' (sic).
Greek alone right. 46. During all
these things = liri ndvTwi' tovtoiv. But
the Greek has the datire = ' in addition
to all these things '. 48. Led the
sheep. So Greek. Ethiopio MSS. give
' led the little sheep '. But the word
' little ' should be omitted, as it is
wanting in the Greek, and the expres-
sion ' little sheep ' is pointless here,
and found but once before in ver. 37.
It crept into the text from the next
line. The rest of the verse, 48'', I have
ti'ausposed after ver. 49. Ver. 49
recounts the victories of David; ver. 48''
his death and the accession of Solomon.
This passage is wanting in the Greek,
but this is so only because the fragment
ends with ver. 49, at the close of
which these words originally stood.
