Yesaya 11:13

11:13 Ephraim’s jealousy will end, ¹ 

and Judah’s hostility ²  will be eliminated.

Ephraim will no longer be jealous of Judah,

and Judah will no longer be hostile toward Ephraim.

Yesaya 59:13

59:13 We have rebelled and tried to deceive the Lord;

we turned back from following our God.

We stir up ³  oppression and rebellion;

we tell lies we concocted in our minds. ⁴ 

[11:13]  ¹ tn Heb “turn aside”; KJV, NASB, NRSV “depart.”

[11:13]  ² tn Heb “hostile ones of Judah.” Elsewhere when the substantival participle of צָרָר (tsarar) takes a pronominal suffix or appears in a construct relationship, the following genitive is objective. (For a list of texts see BDB 865 s.v. III צָרַר) In this case the phrase “hostile ones of Judah” means “those who are hostile toward Judah,” i.e., Judah’s enemies. However, the parallel couplet that follows suggests that Judah’s hostility toward Ephraim is in view. In this case “hostile ones of Judah” means “hostile ones from Judah.” The translation above assumes the latter, giving the immediate context priority over general usage.

[59:13]  ³ tn Heb “speaking.” A new sentence was started here in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[59:13]  ⁴ tn Heb “conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.”
