22:14 The Lord who commands armies told me this: 1 “Certainly this sin will not be forgiven as long as you live,” 2 says the sovereign master, the Lord who commands armies.
3:7 Certainly the sovereign Lord does nothing without first revealing his plan to his servants the prophets.
1 tn Heb “it was revealed in my ears [by?] the Lord who commands armies [traditionally, the Lord of hosts].”
2 tn Heb “Certainly this sin will not be atoned for until you die.” This does not imply that their death will bring atonement; rather it emphasizes that their sin is unpardonable. The statement has the form of an oath.
