Summary
EN XXXVIa: φωνὴ τῆς βροντῆς ‹σ›ου ἐν τῷ τροχῷ (Psalm 76:19)
A problem with earlier editions by Harnack and Turner is that some of their emendations result in a hardly intelligible text. A case in point is the following. Notwithstanding his own conjectural restoration of the text, Turner states that he nonetheless ‘cannot translate it as it stands’. His following remark shows his approach to this text (and its limitations):
‘What is the relation of “wheel” and “thunder”? I can only answer by recalling that one I knew well, who always loved thunder, used to call it “the noise of the chariot-wheels of God upon the mountains”. Only in the movement of the wheel can the resemblance to thunder be found. But how the “great words” come in I cannot say, unless the movement of the wheel is parallel to the utterance of the thought. I do not pretend that the emendation I offer is more than an attempt to get the idea of the passage: it is not near enough to the ductus litterarum to claim to restore the exact wording.’
