The verb שָׁחָה is Qal perfect 3rd person feminine singular of שׁוּחַ (“to sink down”) which must take a feminine singular subject – most likely the “loose woman” of 2:16-17 . However, most English versions take בֵּיתָהּ ( betah ) “her house” (ms noun + 3rd person feminine singular suffix) as the subject (e.g., KJV, RSV, NASB, NIV, NRSV, CEV): “her house sinks down to death.” But בֵּיתָהּ “her house” (ms noun + 3rd person feminine singular suffix) is masculine rather than feminine so it cannot be the subject. K&D 16:83 suggests that בֵּיתָהּ (“her house”) is a permutative noun that qualifies the subject: “she together with all that belongs to her [her house] sinks down to death” (GKC 425 §131. k ). D. Kidner suggests that “her house” is in apposition to “death” (e.g., Job 17:13; 30:23 ; Prov 9:18 ; Eccl 12:5 ), meaning that death is her house: “she sinks down to death, which is her house” ( Proverbs [TOTC], 62). The BHS editors attempt to resolve this syntactical problem by suggesting a conjectural emendation of MT בֵּיתָהּ (“her house”) to the feminine singular noun נְתִיבֹתֶהָּ (“her path”) which appears in 7:27 , to recover a feminine subject for the verb: “her path sinks down to death.” However, the reading of the MT is supported by all the versions.","source_note_position":1,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Proverbs%202%3A18/1"}
