Yesaya 25:10
Konteks25:10 For the Lord’s power will make this mountain secure. 1
Moab will be trampled down where it stands, 2
as a heap of straw is trampled down in 3 a manure pile.
Yesaya 37:31
Konteks37:31 Those who remain in Judah will take root in the ground and bear fruit. 4
Yesaya 63:19
Konteks63:19 We existed from ancient times, 5
but you did not rule over them,
they were not your subjects. 6
[25:10] 1 tn Heb “for the hand of the Lord will rest on this mountain”; TEV “will protect Mount Zion”; NCV “will protect (rest on NLT) Jerusalem.”
[25:10] 2 tn Heb “under him,” i.e., “in his place.”
[25:10] 3 tc The marginal reading (Qere) is בְּמוֹ (bÿmo, “in”). The consonantal text (Kethib) has בְּמִי (bÿmi, “in the water of”).
[37:31] 4 tn Heb “The remnant of the house of Judah that is left will add roots below and produce fruit above.”
[63:19] 5 tn Heb “we were from antiquity” (see v. 16). The collocation עוֹלָם + מִן + הָיָה (hayah + min + ’olam) occurs only here.
[63:19] 6 tn Heb “you did not rule them, your name was not called over them.” The expression “the name is called over” indicates ownership; see the note at 4:1. As these two lines stand they are very difficult to interpret. They appear to be stating that the adversaries just mentioned in v. 18 have not been subject to the Lord’s rule in the past, perhaps explaining why they could commit the atrocity described in v. 18b.
