Yesaya 59:20

59:20 “A protector ¹  comes to Zion,

to those in Jacob who repent of their rebellious deeds,” ²  says the Lord.

Yesaya 24:20

24:20 The earth will stagger around ³  like a drunk;

it will sway back and forth like a hut in a windstorm. ⁴ 

Its sin will weigh it down,

and it will fall and never get up again.

[59:20]  ¹ tn Or “redeemer.” See the note at 41:14.

[59:20]  ² tn Heb “and to those who turn from rebellion in Jacob.”

[24:20]  ³ tn Heb “staggering, staggers.” The Hebrew text uses the infinitive absolute before the finite verb for emphasis and sound play.

[24:20]  ⁴ tn The words “in a windstorm” are supplied in the translation to clarify the metaphor.
