[18:11]  2 sn Heb “I am forming disaster and making plans against you.” The word translated “forming” is the same as that for “potter,” so there is a wordplay taking the reader back to v. 5. They are in his hands like the clay in the hands of the potter. Since they have not been pliable he forms new plans. He still offers them opportunity to repent; but their response is predictable.

[18:11]  3 tn Heb “Turn, each one from his wicked way.” See v. 8.

[18:11]  4 tn Or “Make good your ways and your actions.” See the same expression in 7:3, 5.

[26:15]  5 tn Heb “For in truth the Lord has sent me to you to speak in your ears all these words/things.”

[44:29]  9 tn Heb “oracle of the Lord.”

[44:29]  10 tn Heb “This will be to you the sign, oracle of the Lord, that I will punish you in this place in order that you may know that my threats against you for evil/disaster/harm will certainly stand [see the translator’s note on the preceding verse for the meaning of this word here].” The word “sign” refers to an event that is a pre-omen or portent of something that will happen later (see BDB 16 s.v. אוֹת 2 and compare usage in 1 Sam 14:10; 2 Kgs 19:29). The best way to carry that idea across in this context seems to be “I will make something happen to prove [or portend].” Another possibility would be “I will give you a pre-omen that,” but many readers would probably not be familiar with “omen/pre-omen.” Again the sentence has been broken in two and restructured to better conform with English style.

[49:30]  13 tn Heb “Oracle of the Lord.”

[49:30]  15 tn Heb “Make deep to dwell.” See Jer 49:8 and the translator’s note there. The use of this same phrase here argues against the alternative there of going down from a height and going back home.

[49:30]  16 tn Heb “has counseled a counsel against you, has planned a plan against you.”
