66:19 However, God heard;
he listened to my prayer.
82:7 Yet you will die like mortals; 1
you will fall like all the other rulers.” 2
31:22 I jumped to conclusions and said, 3
“I am cut off from your presence!” 4
But you heard my plea for mercy when I cried out to you for help.
1 tn Heb “men.” The point in the context is mortality, however, not maleness.
2 tn Heb “like one of the rulers.” The comparison does not necessarily imply that they are not rulers. The expression “like one of” can sometimes mean “as one of” (Gen 49:16; Obad 11) or “as any other of” (Judg 16:7, 11).
1 tn Heb “and I, I said in my haste.”
2 tn Heb “from before your eyes.”
