Isaiah 9:16

9:16 The leaders of this nation were misleading people,

and the people being led were destroyed. ¹ 

[9:16]  ¹ tn Heb “and the ones being led were swallowed up.” Instead of taking מְבֻלָּעִים (mÿbulla’im) from בָּלַע (bala’, “to swallow”), HALOT 134 s.v. בלע proposes a rare homonymic root בלע (“confuse”) here.
