109:23 I am fading away like a shadow at the end of the day; 1
I am shaken off like a locust.
54:11 “O afflicted one, driven away, 2 and unconsoled!
Look, I am about to set your stones in antimony
and I lay your foundation with lapis-lazuli.
1 tn Heb “like a shadow when it is extended I go.” He is like a late afternoon shadow made by the descending sun that will soon be swallowed up by complete darkness. See Ps 102:11.
2 tn Or, more literally, “windblown, storm tossed.”
