[29:20]  ¹ tn Heb “and all the watchers of wrong will be cut off.”

[34:12]  ² tn Heb “will be nothing”; NCV, TEV, NLT “will all be gone.”

[45:6]  ³ tn The words “I do this” are supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[45:6]  ⁴ tn Heb “they” (so KJV, ASV); TEV, CEV “everyone”; NLT “all the world.”
