Isaiah 30:5

30:5 all will be put to shame ¹ 

because of a nation that cannot help them,

who cannot give them aid or help,

but only shame and disgrace.”

Isaiah 61:7

61:7 Instead of shame, you will get a double portion; ² 

instead of humiliation, they will rejoice over the land they receive. ³ 

Yes, ⁴  they will possess a double portion in their land

and experience lasting joy.

[30:5]  ¹ tn The present translation follows the marginal (Qere) reading of the Hebrew text; the consonantal text (Kethib) has “made to stink, decay.”

[61:7]  ² tn Heb “instead of your shame, a double portion.”

[61:7]  ³ tn Heb “and [instead of] humiliation they will rejoice [over] their portion.” The term תָחָת (takhat, “instead of”) is understood by ellipsis (note the preceding line).

[61:7]  ⁴ tn Heb “therefore” (so KJV, NASB); NIV “and so.”
