[11:11]  ¹ tn Or “in that day” (KJV). The verb that introduces this verse serves as a discourse particle and is untranslated; see note on “in the future” in 2:2.

[11:11]  ² tn The Hebrew term translated “sovereign master” here is אֲדֹנָי (’adonai).

[11:11]  ³ tc The Hebrew text reads, “the sovereign master will again, a second time, his hand.” The auxiliary verb יוֹסִיף (yosif), which literally means “add,” needs a main verb to complete it. Consequently many emend שֵׁנִית (shenit, “a second time”) to an infinitive. Some propose the form שַׁנֹּת (shannot, a Piel infinitive construct from שָׁנָה, shanah) and relate it semantically to an Arabic cognate meaning “to be high.” If the Hebrew text is retained a verb must be supplied. “Second time” would allude back to the events of the Exodus (see vv. 15-16).

[11:11]  ⁴ tn Or “acquire”; KJV, ASV, NASB, NRSV “recover.”

[11:11]  ⁵ tn Heb “the remnant of his people who remain.”

[11:11]  ⁶ sn Perhaps a reference to Upper (i.e., southern) Egypt (so NIV, NLT; NCV “South Egypt”).

[11:11]  ⁷ tn Or “Ethiopia” (NAB, NRSV, NLT).

[11:11]  ⁸ tn Or “Babylonia” (NIV, NCV, TEV, NLT).

[11:11]  ⁹ tn Or perhaps, “the islands of the sea.”

[48:20]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “to the end of the earth” (so KJV, NASB, NRSV).

[48:20]  ¹¹ tn Heb “redeems.” See the note at 41:14.

[66:20]  ¹² tn Heb “brothers” (so NIV); NCV “fellow Israelites.”

[66:20]  ¹³ tn The words “they will bring them” are supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[66:20]  ¹⁴ tn The precise meaning of this word is uncertain. Some suggest it refers to “chariots.” See HALOT 498 s.v. *כִּרְכָּרָה.

[27:15]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “sons of Dedan.”

[27:15]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “they returned as your gift.”

[11:18]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “his face.” See v. 19 as well.

[11:18]  ¹⁸ sn The commander is probably the Roman commander, Lucius Cornelius Scipio.

[11:18]  ¹⁹ tn The Hebrew here is difficult in that the negative בִּלְתִּי (biltiy, “not”) is used in an unusual way. The sense is not entirely clear.

[11:18]  ²⁰ tn Heb “his shameful conduct he will return to him.”
