Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 7. - Discourage. The verb נוא, translated "discourage" here and in verse 9, is of somewhat doubtful meaning. The Septuagint renders it by διαστρέφω, and perhaps the sense is, "Why do ye draw away the heart?" i.e., render it averse from going over.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(7) And wherefore discourage ye the heart . . . --The verb which is rendered discourage, and which occurs again in Numbers 32:9, means rather to "alienate," or "avert." The cognate noun occurs in Num. adv. 34, in the same connection in which it is used in Numbers 32:9. (See Note in loc.)
