[3:9]  1 tn The Hebrew term translated “diamond” is parallel to “iron” in Jer 17:1. The Hebrew uses two terms which are both translated at times as “flint,” but here one is clearly harder than the other. The translation “diamond” attempts to reflect this distinction in English.

[3:9]  2 tn Heb “of their faces.”

[3:11]  3 tn Heb “to the sons of your people.”

[52:24]  4 sn See the note at Jer 35:4.

[52:25]  5 tn Heb “men, from the people of the land” (also later in this verse).

[52:27]  6 tn Heb “struck them down and killed them.”
