45:17 Israel will be delivered once and for all by the Lord; 1
you will never again be ashamed or humiliated. 2
45:22 Turn to me so you can be delivered, 3
all you who live in the earth’s remote regions!
For I am God, and I have no peer.
1 tn Heb “Israel will be delivered by the Lord [with] a permanent deliverance.”
2 tn Heb “you will not be ashamed and you will not be humiliated for ages of future time.”
3 tn The Niphal imperative with prefixed vav (ו) indicates purpose after the preceding imperative. The Niphal probably has a tolerative sense, “allow yourselves to be delivered, accept help.”
