41:20 Smoke streams from its nostrils
as from a boiling pot over burning 1 rushes.
41:21 Its breath sets coals ablaze
and a flame shoots from its mouth.
8:16 The snorting of the enemy’s horses
is already being heard in the city of Dan.
The sound of the neighing of their stallions 2
causes the whole land to tremble with fear.
They are coming to destroy the land and everything in it!
They are coming to destroy 3 the cities and everyone who lives in them!”
1 tn The word “burning” is supplied. The Syriac and Vulgate have “a seething and boiling pot” (reading אֹגֵם [’ogem] for אַגְמֹן [’agmon]). This view is widely accepted.
2 tn Heb “his stallions.”
3 tn The words “They are coming to destroy” are not in the text. They are inserted to break up a long sentence in conformity with contemporary English style.
