Yesaya 50:6

50:6 I offered my back to those who attacked, ¹ 

my jaws to those who tore out my beard;

I did not hide my face

from insults and spitting.

Ratapan 3:30

3:30 Let him offer his cheek to the one who hits him; ² 

let him have his fill of insults.

Mikha 4:1

Better Days Ahead for Jerusalem

4:1 In the future ³  the Lord’s Temple Mount will be the most important mountain of all; ⁴ 

it will be more prominent than other hills. ⁵ 

People will stream to it.

Kisah Para Rasul 23:2

23:2 At that ⁶  the high priest Ananias ordered those standing near ⁷  Paul ⁸  to strike ⁹  him on the mouth.

[50:6]  ¹ tn Or perhaps, “who beat [me].”

[3:30]  ² tn Heb “to the smiter.”

[4:1]  ³ tn Heb “at the end of days.”

[4:1]  ⁴ tn Heb “will be established as the head of the mountains.”

[4:1]  ⁵ tn Heb “it will be lifted up above the hills.”

[23:2]  ⁶ tn Grk “and” (δέ, de); the phrase “at that” has been used in the translation to clarify the cause and effect relationship.

[23:2]  ⁷ tn BDAG 778 s.v. παρίστημι/παριστάνω 2.b.α has “οἱ παρεστῶτες αὐτῷ those standing near him Ac 23:2.”

[23:2]  ⁸ tn Grk “him”; the referent (Paul) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[23:2]  ⁹ tn Or “hit” (‘strike’ maintains the wordplay with the following verse). The action was probably designed to indicate a rejection of Paul’s claim to a clear conscience in the previous verse.
