[5:17]  1 tn Or “young rams”; NIV, NCV “sheep”; NLT “flocks.”

[5:17]  2 tc The Hebrew text reads literally, “and ruins, fatlings, resident aliens, will eat.” This part of the verse has occasioned various suggestions of emendation. The parallelism is tighter if the second line refers to animals grazing. The translation, “amid the ruins the fatlings and young sheep graze,” assumes an emendation of “resident aliens” (גָּרִים, garim) to “young goats/sheep” (גְּדַיִם, gÿdayim) – confusion of dalet and resh is quite common – and understands “fatlings” and “young sheep” taken as a compound subject or as in apposition as the subject of the verb. However, no emendations are necessary if the above translation is correct. The meaning of מֵחִים (mekhim) has a significant impact on one’s textual decision and translation. The noun can refer to a sacrificial (“fat”) animal as it does in its only other occurrence (Ps 66:15). However, it could signify the rich of the earth (“the fat ones of the earth”; Ps 22:29 [MT 30]) using a different word for “fatness” (דָּשֶׁן, dashen). If so, it serves a figurative reference to the rich. Consequently, the above translation coheres with the first half of the verse. Just as the sheep are out of place grazing in these places (“as in their pasture”), the sojourners would not have expected to have the chance to eat in these locations. Both animals and itinerant foreigners would eat in places not normal for them.

[7:21]  3 tn Heb “in that day.” The verb that introduces this verse serves as a discourse particle and is untranslated; see note on “in the future” in 2:2.

[7:22]  4 tn The verb that introduces this verse serves as a discourse particle and is untranslated, see note on 2:2.

[30:23]  5 tn Heb “and he will give rain for your seed which you plant in the ground, and food [will be] the produce of the ground, and it will be rich and abundant.”

[30:23]  6 tn Or “in that day” (KJV).

[30:24]  7 tn Heb “the oxen and the donkeys that work the ground.”

[30:24]  8 sn Crops will be so abundant that even the work animals will eat well.

[33:16]  9 tn Heb “he [in the] exalted places will live.”

[33:16]  10 tn Heb “mountain strongholds, cliffs [will be] his elevated place.”

[37:30]  11 tn At this point the word concerning the king of Assyria (vv. 22-29) ends and the Lord again addresses Hezekiah and the people directly (see v. 21).

[37:30]  12 tn Heb “and this is your sign.” In this case the אוֹת (’ot, “sign”) is a future reminder of God’s intervention designated before the actual intervention takes place. For similar “signs” see Exod 3:12 and Isa 7:14-25.

[37:30]  13 sn This refers to crops that grew up on their own (that is, without cultivation) from the seed planted in past years.

[37:30]  14 tn Heb “and in the second year” (so ASV).

[37:30]  15 tn Heb “in the third year” (so KJV, NAB).

[37:30]  16 tn The four plural imperatival verb forms in v. 30b are used rhetorically. The Lord commands the people to plant, harvest, etc. to emphasize the certainty of restored peace and prosperity.

[65:14]  17 tn Heb “from the good of the heart.”

[65:14]  18 tn Heb “from the pain of the heart.”

[65:14]  19 tn Heb “from the breaking of the spirit.”
