21:6 For this is what the sovereign master ¹  has told me:

“Go, post a guard!

He must report what he sees.

Yesaya 59:1

Injustice Brings Alienation from God

59:1 Look, the Lord’s hand is not too weak ²  to deliver you;

his ear is not too deaf to hear you. ³ 

[21:6]  ¹ tn The Hebrew term translated “sovereign master” here and in vv. 8, 16 is אֲדֹנָי (’adonay).

[59:1]  ² tn Heb “short” (so NAB, NASB, NIV, NRSV).

[59:1]  ³ tn Heb “or his ear too heavy [i.e., “dull”] to hear.”
