The textual reading is kaari , "as a lion my hands and feet;" but several manuscripts , read karoo , and others karoo in the margin , which affords the reading adopted by our translators. So the LXX שסץמבם קויסבע לןץ ךבי נןהבע , so also the Vulgate , Syriac , Arabic , and Ethiopic; and as all the Evangelists so quote the passage , and apply it to the crucifixion of Christ , there seems scarcely the shadow of a doubt that this is the genuine reading; especially when it is considered , that the other contains no sense at all. The whole difference lies between ו , wav and י , yood , which might easily be mistaken for each other
