Isaiah 5:29-30
Context5:29 Their roar is like a lion’s;
they roar like young lions.
They growl and seize their prey;
they drag it away and no one can come to the rescue.
5:30 At that time 1 they will growl over their prey, 2
it will sound like sea waves crashing against rocks. 3
One will look out over the land and see the darkness of disaster,
clouds will turn the light into darkness. 4
[5:30] 1 tn Or “in that day” (KJV).
[5:30] 2 tn Heb “over it”; the referent (the prey) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
[5:30] 3 tn Heb “like the growling of the sea.”
[5:30] 4 tn Heb “and one will gaze toward the land, and look, darkness of distress, and light will grow dark by its [the land’s?] clouds.”
