Ibn Ezra on Deuteronomy 28:63/אבן עזרא על דברים כ״ח:ס״ג
אוטעם כאשר שש. שלא תחשוב כי יזיק לשם או יתאבל כטעם אם צדקת מה תתן לו:
1AS THE LORD REJOICED. You should not think that this will harm God or that God will mourn.101 Its meaning is similar to102 If thou he righteous, what givest thou to him (Job 35:7).
בונסחתם. מבנין נפעל והוא חסר נו״ן. מגזרת יסח ה':
2AND YE SHALL BE PLUCKED. Ve-nissachtem (and ye shall be plucked) is a nifal. It is lacking a nun.103 is dropped. Thus the word reads nissachtem rather than ninsachtem. It is related to the word yissach (will pluck) in The Lord will pluck up (Prov. 15:25).
