Konteks4:8 Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their grandeur. 22
[18:10] 1 tn Heb “he makes the kingdom or the nation swear an oath.”
[22:27] 2 tn Heb “may all the ends of the earth remember and turn to the
[22:27] 3 tn Heb “families of the nations.”
[22:27] 4 tn Heb “before you.”
[98:3] 5 tn Heb “he remembers his loyal love and his faithfulness to the house of Israel.”
[98:3] 6 tn Heb “the deliverance of our God,” with “God” being a subjective genitive (= God delivers).
[24:16] 7 sn The identity of the subject is unclear. Apparently in vv. 15-16a an unidentified group responds to the praise they hear in the west by exhorting others to participate.
[24:16] 8 tn Heb “Beauty belongs to the just one.” These words may summarize the main theme of the songs mentioned in the preceding line.
[24:16] 9 sn The prophet seems to contradict what he hears the group saying. Their words are premature because more destruction is coming.
[24:16] 10 tn Heb “and [with] deception deceivers deceive.”
[24:16] tn Verse 16b is a classic example of Hebrew wordplay. In the first line (“I’m wasting away…”) four consecutive words end with hireq yod ( ִי); in the second line all forms are derived from the root בָּגַד (bagad). The repetition of sound draws attention to the prophet’s lament.
[49:6] 11 tn Heb “the protected [or “preserved”] ones.”
[49:6] 12 sn The question is purely rhetorical; it does not imply that the servant was dissatisfied with his commission or that he minimized the restoration of Israel.
[49:6] 13 tn See the note at 42:6.
[49:6] 14 tn Heb “be” (so KJV, ASV); CEV “you must take.”
[52:10] 15 tn Heb “lays bare”; NLT “will demonstrate.”
[52:10] 16 tn Heb “his holy arm.” This is a metonymy for his power.
[52:10] 17 tn Heb “the remote regions,” which here stand for the extremities and everything in between.
[52:10] 18 tn Heb “the deliverance of our God.” “God” is a subjective genitive here.
[16:19] 19 tn The words “Then I said” are not in the text. They are supplied in the translation to show the shift from God, who has been speaking to Jeremiah, to Jeremiah, who here addresses God.
[16:19] sn The shift here is consistent with the interruptions that have taken place in chapters 14 and 15 and in Jeremiah’s response to God’s condemnation of the people of Judah’s idolatry in chapter 10 (note especially vv. 6-16).
[16:19] 20 tn Heb “O
[16:19] 21 tn Once again the translation has sacrificed some of the rhetorical force for the sake of clarity and English style: Heb “Only falsehood did our ancestors possess, vanity and [things in which?] there was no one profiting in them.”
[16:19] sn This passage offers some rather forceful contrasts. The
