Isaiah 55:5

55:5 Look, you will summon nations ¹  you did not previously know;

nations ²  that did not previously know you will run to you,

because of the Lord your God,

the Holy One of Israel, ³ 

for he bestows honor on you.

[55:5]  ¹ tn Heb “a nation,” but the singular is collective here, as the plural verbs in the next line indicate (note that both “know” and “run” are third plural forms).

[55:5]  ² tn Heb “a nation,” but the singular is collective here, as the plural verbs that follow indicate.

[55:5]  ³ sn See the note on the phrase “the Holy One of Israel” in 1:4.
