Isaiah 3:5
Context3:5 The people will treat each other harshly;
men will oppose each other;
neighbors will fight. 1
Youths will proudly defy the elderly
and riffraff will challenge those who were once respected. 2
Isaiah 60:22
Context60:22 The least of you will multiply into 3 a thousand;
the smallest of you will become a large nation.
When the right time comes, I the Lord will quickly do this!” 4


[3:5] 1 tn Heb “man against man, and a man against his neighbor.”
[3:5] 2 tn Heb “and those lightly esteemed those who are respected.” The verb רָהַב (rahav) does double duty in the parallelism.
[60:22] 3 tn Heb “will become” (so NASB, NIV).
[60:22] 4 tn Heb “I, the Lord, in its time, I will quickly do it.”
