[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.

[49:30]  7 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]  8 tn Heb “has counseled a counsel against you, has planned a plan against you.”
