Isaiah 40:29-31

40:29 He gives strength to those who are tired;

to the ones who lack power, he gives renewed energy.

40:30 Even youths get tired and weary;

even strong young men clumsily stumble. ⁶ 

40:31 But those who wait for the Lord’s help ⁷  find renewed strength;

they rise up as if they had eagles’ wings, ⁸ 

they run without growing weary,

they walk without getting tired.

[14:27]  ¹ tn Heb “and he returned his hand to his mouth.”

[14:27]  ² tc The translation follows the Qere and several medieval Hebrew mss in reading “gleamed,” rather than the Kethib, “saw.”

[1:19]  ³ tn Grk “these are the ones who cause divisions.”

[1:19]  ⁴ tn Or “natural,” that is, living on the level of instincts, not on a spiritual level (the same word occurs in 1 Cor 2:14 as a description of nonbelievers).

[1:19]  ⁵ tn Grk “not having [the] Spirit.”

[40:30]  ⁶ tn Heb “stumbling they stumble.” The verbal idea is emphasized by the infinitive absolute.

[40:31]  ⁸ tn Heb “they rise up [on] wings like eagles” (TEV similar).
