Isaiah 22:14

22:14 The Lord who commands armies told me this: ¹  “Certainly this sin will not be forgiven as long as you live,” ²  says the sovereign master, the Lord who commands armies.

and looking for safety in Egypt’s protective shade. ⁴ 

Isaiah 57:17

57:17 I was angry because of their sinful greed;

I attacked them and angrily rejected them, ⁵ 

yet they remained disobedient and stubborn. ⁶ 

[22:14]  ¹ tn Heb “it was revealed in my ears [by?] the Lord who commands armies [traditionally, the Lord of hosts].”

[22:14]  ² tn Heb “Certainly this sin will not be atoned for until you die.” This does not imply that their death will bring atonement; rather it emphasizes that their sin is unpardonable. The statement has the form of an oath.

[30:2]  ³ tn Heb “those who go to descend to Egypt, but [of] my mouth they do not inquire.”

[30:2]  ⁴ tn Heb “to seek protection in the protection of Pharaoh, and to seek refuge in the shade of Egypt.”

[57:17]  ⁵ tn Heb “and I struck him, hiding, and I was angry.” פָּנַיִם (panayim, “face”) is the implied object of “hiding.”

[57:17]  ⁶ tn Heb “and he walked [as an] apostate in the way of his heart.”
