The shepherds of the flocks will not be able to escape.

[11:11]  ¹ tn Heb “Therefore, thus, says the Lord.” The person has been shifted in the translation in accordance with the difference between Hebrew and English style.

[23:24]  ² tn Heb “Oracle of the Lord.”

[23:24]  ³ tn The words “Don’t you know” are not in the text. They are a way of conveying the idea that the question which reads literally “Do I not fill heaven and earth?” expects a positive answer. They follow the pattern used at the beginning of the previous two questions and continue that thought. The words are supplied in the translation for clarity.

[23:24]  ⁴ tn Heb “Oracle of the Lord.”

[25:35]  ⁵ tn Heb “Flight [or “place of escape”] will perish from the shepherds.”

[25:35]  sn Judging from Gen 14:10 and Judg 8:12 (among many others), it was not uncommon for the leaders to try to save their own necks at the expense of their soldiers.
