Footnote

Or, “the holy ones of the Most High.” Aram., qad·di·shehʹ ʽEl·yoh·ninʹ (pl. of ʽEl·yohnʹ), forming with the Aram. word for “holy ones” a second pl. word, or else copying the plurality of “holy ones” because of being so close in the sentence. Evidently this is not meant to indicate that the “holy ones” are most high. “Most High” is sing. in LXXSyVg and many Heb. mss.
