Yesaya 19:17
Konteks19:17 The land of Judah will humiliate Egypt. Everyone who hears about Judah will be afraid because of what the Lord who commands armies is planning to do to them. 1
Yesaya 66:8
Konteks66:8 Who has ever heard of such a thing?
Who has ever seen this?
Can a country 2 be brought forth in one day?
Can a nation be born in a single moment?
Yet as soon as Zion goes into labor she gives birth to sons!
[19:17] 1 tn Heb “and the land of Judah will become [a source of] shame to Egypt, everyone to whom one mentions it [i.e., the land of Judah] will fear because of the plan of the Lord who commands armies [traditionally, the Lord of hosts] which he is planning against him.”
[66:8] 2 tn Heb “land,” but here אֶרֶץ (’erets) stands metonymically for an organized nation (see the following line).
