26:43 The land will be abandoned by them ¹  in order that it may make up for ²  its Sabbaths while it is made desolate ³  without them, ⁴  and they will make up for their iniquity because ⁵  they have rejected my regulations and have abhorred ⁶  my statutes.

Yesaya 6:12

6:12 and the Lord has sent the people off to a distant place,

and the very heart of the land is completely abandoned. ⁷ 

Yesaya 54:6

54:6 “Indeed, the Lord will call you back

like a wife who has been abandoned and suffers from depression, ⁸ 

like a young wife when she has been rejected,” says your God.

[26:43]  ¹ tn Heb “from them.” The preposition “from” refers here to the agent of the action (J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 455).

[26:43]  ² tn The jussive form of the verb with the simple vav (ו) here calls for a translation that expresses purpose.

[26:43]  ³ tn The verb is the Hophal infinitive construct with the third feminine singular suffix (GKC 182 §67.y; cf. v. 34).

[26:43]  ⁴ tn Heb “from them.”

[26:43]  ⁵ tn Heb “because and in because,” a double expression, which is used only here and in Ezek 13:10 (without the vav) for emphasis (GKC 492 §158.b).

[26:43]  ⁶ tn Heb “and their soul has abhorred.”

[6:12]  ⁷ tn Heb “and great is the abandonment in the midst of the land.”

[54:6]  ⁸ tn Heb “like a woman abandoned and grieved in spirit.”
