Luke 21:15

21:15 For I will give you the words ⁶  along with the wisdom ⁷  that none of your adversaries will be able to withstand or contradict.

[14:3]  ¹ tn Heb “put the words in her mouth” (so NASB, NIV).

[4:15]  ² tn Or “I will help you speak.” The independent pronoun puts emphasis (“as for me”) on the subject (“I”).

[4:15]  ³ tn Or “and will help him speak.”

[4:15]  ⁴ tn The word “both” is supplied to convey that this object (“you”) and the subject of the next verb (“you must do”) are plural in the Hebrew text, referring to Moses and Aaron. In 4:16 “you” returns to being singular in reference to Moses.

[4:15]  ⁵ tn The imperfect tense carries the obligatory nuance here as well. The relative pronoun with this verb forms a noun clause functioning as the direct object of “I will teach.”

[21:15]  ⁶ tn Grk “a mouth.” It is a metonymy and refers to the reply the Lord will give to them.

[21:15]  ⁷ tn Grk “and wisdom.”
