Isaiah 55:13

55:13 Evergreens will grow in place of thorn bushes,

firs will grow in place of nettles;

they will be a monument to the Lord, ¹ 

a permanent reminder that will remain. ² 

Revelation 3:5

3:5 The one who conquers ³  will be dressed like them ⁴  in white clothing, ⁵  and I will never ⁶  erase ⁷  his name from the book of life, but ⁸  will declare ⁹  his name before my Father and before his angels.

¹ tn Heb “to the Lord for a name.” For שֵׁם (shem) used in the sense of “monument,” see also 56:5, where it stands parallel to יָד (yad).

² tn Or, more literally, “a permanent sign that will not be cut off.”

³ tn Or “who overcomes.”

⁴ tn Grk “thus.”

⁵ tn Or “white robes.”

⁶ tn The negation here is with οὐ μή (ou mh), the strongest possible form of negation in Koine Greek.

⁷ tn Or “will never wipe out.”

⁸ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context.

⁹ tn Grk “will confess.”
