[9:1] 1 sn In the Hebrew text (BHS) the chapter division comes one verse later than in the English Bible; 9:1 (8:23 HT). Thus 9:2-21 in the English Bible = 9:1-20 in the Hebrew text. Beginning with 10:1 the verse numbers in the English Bible and the Hebrew Bible are again the same.
[9:1] 2 tn The Hebrew text reads, “Indeed there is no gloom for the one to whom there was anxiety for her.” The feminine singular pronominal suffix “her” must refer to the land (cf. vv. 22a, 23b). So one could translate, “Indeed there will be no gloom for the land which was anxious.” In this case the statement introduces the positive message to follow. Some assume an emendation of לֹא (lo’, “no”) to לוֹ (lo, “to him”) and of לָהּ (lah, “to her”) to לוֹ (lo, “to him”), yielding this literal reading: “indeed there is gloom for him, for the one to whom there was anxiety for him.” In this case the statement concludes the preceding description of judgment.
[9:1] 3 tn The Lord must be understood as the subject of the two verbs in this verse.
[9:1] 4 sn The statement probably alludes to the Assyrian conquest of Israel in ca. 734-733
[9:1] 5 tn Heb Just as in earlier times he humiliated…, [in] the latter times he has brought honor.” The main verbs in vv. 1b-4 are Hebrew perfects. The prophet takes his rhetorical stance in the future age of restoration and describes future events as if they have already occurred. To capture the dramatic effect of the original text, the translation uses the English present or present perfect.
[9:1] 6 sn These three geographical designations may refer to provinces established by the Assyrians in 734-733
[19:21] 7 tn Heb “Egypt.” For stylistic reasons, to avoid redundancy, the present translation uses the pronoun (“they”) here.
[19:21] 8 tn Heb “will know the Lord.”
[19:21] 9 tn Heb “in that day” (so KJV), likewise at the beginning of vv. 23 and 24.
[25:8] 10 sn The image of the Lord “swallowing” death would be especially powerful, for death was viewed in Canaanite mythology and culture as a hungry enemy that swallows its victims. See the note at 5:14.
[25:8] 11 tn Heb “has spoken” (so NAB, NASB, NIV, NRSV, NLT).
[38:1] 12 tn Heb “was sick to the point of dying”; NRSV “became sick and was at the point of death.”
[49:26] 13 sn Verse 26a depicts siege warfare and bloody defeat. The besieged enemy will be so starved they will their own flesh. The bloodstained bodies lying on the blood-soaked battle site will look as if they collapsed in drunkenness.
[49:26] 14 tn Heb “flesh” (so KJV, NASB).
[49:26] 15 tn Heb “your redeemer.” See the note at 41:14.
[49:26] 16 tn Heb “the powerful [one] of Jacob.” See 1:24.
[51:11] 17 tn Heb “[will be] on their head[s].” “Joy” may be likened here to a crown (cf. 2 Sam 1:10). The statement may also be an ironic twist on the idiom “earth/dust on the head” (cf. 2 Sam 1:2; 13:19; 15:32; Job 2:12), referring to a mourning practice.
[51:11] 18 tn Heb “overtake” (so NIV); NASB “they will obtain.”
[51:11] 19 tn Heb “grief and groaning will flee.”
[59:19] 20 tc Heb “fear.” A few medieval Hebrew
[59:19] 21 tn Heb “and they fear from the west the name of the Lord.”
[59:19] 22 tn Heb “and from the rising of the sun his splendor.”
[59:19] 23 tn Heb “narrow”; NAB, NIV, NRSV “pent-up.”
[59:19] 24 tn Heb “the wind of the Lord drives it on.” The term רוּחַ (ruakh) could be translated “breath” here (see 30:28).
