<p> ''''' pāt ''''' ( קדקד , <i> ''''' ḳodhḳōdh ''''' </i> ): The word usually translated "crown," "crown of the head" ( [[Genesis]] 49:26; Deuteronomy 28:35; Deuteronomy 33:16 , Deuteronomy 33:20; 2 Samuel 14:25; Job 2:7; Isaiah 3:17; Jeremiah 2:16; Jeremiah 48:45 ) and "scalp" ( Psalm 68:21 ) is rendered "pate" in Psalm 7:16 in agreement with earlier English translators since Coverdale: "His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violence shall come down upon his own pate." The reason for the choice of the word lies evidently in the desire to make the [[Hebrew]] parallelism with "head" ( <i> '''''rō'sh''''' </i> ) apparent. The same object has, however, been achieved differently in another poetical passage ( Genesis 49:26 parallel Deuteronomy 33:16 ), namely, by the juxtaposition of "head" and "crown of the head." </p> | <p> ''''' pāt ''''' ( קדקד , <i> ''''' ḳodhḳōdh ''''' </i> ): The word usually translated "crown," "crown of the head" ( [[Genesis]] 49:26; Deuteronomy 28:35; Deuteronomy 33:16 , Deuteronomy 33:20; 2 Samuel 14:25; Job 2:7; Isaiah 3:17; Jeremiah 2:16; Jeremiah 48:45 ) and "scalp" ( Psalm 68:21 ) is rendered "pate" in Psalm 7:16 in agreement with earlier English translators since Coverdale: "His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violence shall come down upon his own pate."
