Yesaya 25:7

25:7 On this mountain he will swallow up

the shroud that is over all the peoples, ¹ 

the woven covering that is over all the nations; ² 

Yesaya 29:18

29:18 At that time ³  the deaf will be able to hear words read from a scroll,

and the eyes of the blind will be able to see through deep darkness. ⁴ 

Yesaya 54:13

54:13 All your children will be followers of the Lord,

and your children will enjoy great prosperity. ⁵ 

[25:7]  ¹ tn The Hebrew text reads, “the face of the shroud, the shroud over all the nations.” Some emend the second הַלּוֹט (hallot) to a passive participle הַלּוּט (hallut, “that is wrapped”).

[25:7]  ² sn The point of the imagery is unclear. Perhaps the shroud/covering referred to was associated with death in some way (see v. 8).

[29:18]  ³ tn Or “In that day” (KJV).

[29:18]  ⁴ tn Heb “and out of gloom and darkness the eyes of the blind will see.”

[29:18]  sn Perhaps this depicts the spiritual transformation of the once spiritually insensitive nation (see vv. 10-12, cf. also 6:9-10).

[54:13]  ⁵ tn Heb “and great [will be] the peace of your sons.”
