Isaiah 40:30-31

40:30 Even youths get tired and weary;

even strong young men clumsily stumble. ¹ 

40:31 But those who wait for the Lord’s help ²  find renewed strength;

they rise up as if they had eagles’ wings, ³ 

they run without growing weary,

they walk without getting tired.

[40:30]  ¹ tn Heb “stumbling they stumble.” The verbal idea is emphasized by the infinitive absolute.

[40:31]  ² tn The words “for the Lord’s help” are supplied in the translation for clarification.

[40:31]  ³ tn Heb “they rise up [on] wings like eagles” (TEV similar).
