| NET Notes |
1 tn Heb “by sword, by starvation, or by disease.” 2 tn Heb “those who go out to the Chaldeans.” For the rendering “Babylonians” for “Chaldeans” see the study note on 21:4. 3 tn Heb “his life will be to him for spoil and he will live.” For the meaning of this idiom see the study note on 21:9. The words and “he will live” have been left out of the translation because they are redundant after “will live” and “they will escape with their lives.” 3 sn See Jer 21:9 for this prophecy. |
