[48:9] 1 tn Heb “for the sake of my name” (so NAB, NASB); NLT “for my own sake.”
[48:9] 2 tn Heb “and my praise.” לְמַעַן (lÿma’an, “for the sake of”) is understood by ellipsis (note the preceding line).
[48:9] 3 tn Heb “I restrain [myself] concerning you not to cut you off.”
[48:11] 4 tn The Hebrew text repeats לְמַעֲנִי (lÿma’ani, “for my sake”) for emphasis.
[48:11] 5 tn The Hebrew text reads literally, “for how can it be defiled?” The subject of the verb is probably “name” (v. 9).
