tn Heb “make it happen before me today.” Although a number of English translations understand this as a request for success in the task (cf. NASB, NIV, NRSV) it is more likely that the servant is requesting an omen or sign from God (v. 14).

tn Heb “act in loyal love with” or “show kindness to.”

tn Heb “twelve [were] we, brothers, sons of our father [are] we.”

tn Heb “the one is not.”

tn Heb “today.”
