1 tn Or “stumbling block.” The Hebrew term refers to an obstacle in the road in Lev 19:14.
2 sn The judgment of plague and famine comes from the covenant curse (Lev 26:25-26). As in v. 10, the city of Jerusalem is figuratively addressed here.
3 sn Judgment by plague, famine, and sword occurs in Jer 21:9; 27:13; Ezek 6:11, 12; 7:15.
3 tn Or “gifts.”
4 tn Or “Will I reveal myself to you?”
5 tn Or “I will not reveal myself to you.”
4 tn Heb “Nebuchadrezzar” is a variant and more correct spelling of Nebuchadnezzar, as the Babylonian name Nabu-kudurri-usur has an “r” rather than an “n” (so also in v. 19).
5 sn Nebuchadnezzar besieged Tyre from 585 to 571 b.c.
5 tn Heb “turn from his way.”
6 tn Heb “ways.” This same word is translated “behavior” earlier in the verse.
6 tn Heb “fall.”
7 tn Heb “to turn your hand against.”
8 tn The Hebrew term occurs elsewhere only in Judg 9:37. Perhaps it means “high point, top.”
8 tn Heb “they will not carry.”
9 tn Heb “loot their looters and plunder their plunderers.”
9 tn The word הִנֵּה (hinneh, traditionally “behold”) indicates becoming aware of something and has been translated here as a verb.
