To be fair on this one, we are basing this on a relatively recent English translation, of a Latin translation, of a Greek translation from Hebrew.

As an English speaker who took Latin in middle school, German in college, and have some Hispanic nieces and nephews, I can tell you: a lot of translations are best guesstimates. Sometimes, a literal word-for-word translation would make no sense. You attempt to convey what the original meant.
