Ezekiel 39:9-10

39:9 “‘Then those who live in the cities of Israel will go out and use the weapons for kindling ⁵  – the shields, ⁶  bows and arrows, war clubs and spears – they will burn them for seven years. 39:10 They will not need to take ⁷  wood from the field or cut down trees from the forests, because they will make fires with the weapons. They will take the loot from those who looted them and seize the plunder of those who plundered them, ⁸  declares the sovereign Lord.

[10:2]  ¹ tn Heb “and he”; the referent (the Lord) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[10:2]  ² tn The Hebrew term often refers to chariot wheels (Isa 28:28; Ezek 23:24; 26:10).

[10:2]  ³ tc The LXX, Syriac, Vulgate, and Targum mss read plural “cherubim” while the MT is singular here, “cherub.” The plural ending was probably omitted in copying the MT due to the similar beginning of the next word.

[22:20]  ⁴ tn Heb “I will put.” No object is supplied in the Hebrew, prompting many to emend the text to “I will blow.” See BHS and verse 21.

[39:9]  ⁷ tn Heb “burn and kindle the weapons.”

[39:9]  ⁸ tn Two different types of shields are specified in the Hebrew text.

[39:10]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “they will not carry.”

[39:10]  ¹¹ tn Heb “loot their looters and plunder their plunderers.”
