1 Samuel 24:2
Verse 2. Rocks of the wild goats.] The original ( tsurey haiyeelim) is variously understood. The VULGATE makes a paraphrase: Super abruptissimas petras quae solis ibicibus perviae sunt; "On the most precipitous rocks over which the ibexes alone can travel." The TARGUM: the caverns of the rocks. The SEPTUAGINT make the original a proper name; for out of tsurey haiyeelim, they make σαδδαιεμ Saddaiem, and in some copies αειαμειν Aeiamein, which are evidently corruptions of the Hebrew.
