Isaiah 19:12

19:12 But where, oh where, are your wise men? ¹ 

Let them tell you, let them find out

what the Lord who commands armies has planned for Egypt.

Isaiah 41:22

41:22 “Let them produce evidence! Let them tell us what will happen!

Tell us about your earlier predictive oracles, ² 

so we may examine them ³  and see how they were fulfilled. ⁴ 

Or decree for us some future events!

[19:12]  ¹ tn Heb “Where are they? Where are your wise men?” The juxtaposition of the interrogative pronouns is emphatic. See HALOT 38 s.v. אֶי.

[41:22]  ² tn Heb “As for the former things, tell us what they are!”

[41:22]  ³ tn Heb “so we might set [them to] our heart.”

[41:22]  ⁴ tn Heb “and might know their outcome.”
