Isaiah 16:1
Context16:1 Send rams as tribute to the ruler of the land, 1
from Sela in the desert 2
to the hill of Daughter Zion.
Isaiah 30:23
Context30:23 He will water the seed you plant in the ground,
and the ground will produce crops in abundance. 3
At that time 4 your cattle will graze in wide pastures.
[16:1] 1 tc The Hebrew text reads literally, “Send [a plural imperatival form is used] a ram [to] the ruler of the land.” The term כַּר (kar, “ram”) should be emended to the plural כָּרִים (karim). The singular form in the text is probably the result of haplography; note that the next word begins with a mem (מ).
[16:1] 2 tn The Hebrew text has “toward [across?] the desert.”
[30:23] 3 tn Heb “and he will give rain for your seed which you plant in the ground, and food [will be] the produce of the ground, and it will be rich and abundant.”
