37:23 Whom have you taunted and hurled insults at?
At whom have you shouted
and looked so arrogantly? 1
At the Holy One of Israel! 2
37:28 I know where you live
and everything you do
and how you rage against me. 3
1 tn Heb “and lifted your eyes on high?” Cf. NIV “lifted your eyes in pride”; NRSV “haughtily lifted your eyes.”
2 sn See the note on the phrase “the Holy One of Israel” in 1:4.
3 tc Heb “your going out and your coming in and how you have raged against me.” Several scholars have suggested that this line is probably dittographic (note the beginning of the next line). However, most English translations include the statement in question at the end of v. 28 and the beginning of v. 29. Interestingly, the LXX does not have this clause at the end of v. 28 and the Qumran scroll 1QIsaa does not have it at the beginning of v. 29. In light of this ambiguous manuscript evidence, it appears best to retain the clause in both verses.
