AV) would then be the only use of the word of other than God's anger; here Greek Version of the LXX Targum Ew Hi Gf Ke Che Gie RV rightly read חרב oppressing sword (as Jeremiah 46:16; Jeremiah 50:16). חרון is not used in H P D2 or E (except song, Exodus 15:7) of the Hexateuch; nor in Ezekiel except Ezekiel 7:12 (strike out Co), Ezekiel 7:14.
