Yesaya 2:7

2:7 Their land is full of gold and silver;

there is no end to their wealth. ¹ 

Their land is full of horses;

there is no end to their chariots. ² 

Yesaya 22:18

22:18 He will wind you up tightly into a ball

and throw you into a wide, open land. ³ 

There you will die,

and there with you will be your impressive chariots, ⁴ 

which bring disgrace to the house of your master. ⁵ 

[2:7]  ¹ tn Or “treasuries”; KJV “treasures.”

[2:7]  ² sn Judah’s royal bureaucracy had accumulated great wealth and military might, in violation of Deut 17:16-17.

[22:18]  ³ tn Heb “and he will tightly [or “surely”] wind you [with] winding like a ball, to a land broad of hands [i.e., “sides”].”

[22:18]  ⁴ tn Heb “and there the chariots of your splendor.”

[22:18]  ⁵ sn Apparently the reference to chariots alludes to Shebna’s excessive pride, which in turn brings disgrace to the royal family.
