[8:21]  1 tn Heb “daughter of my people.” For the translation given here see 4:11 and the note on the phrase “dear people” there.

[8:21]  2 tn Heb “Because of the crushing of the daughter of my people I am crushed.”

[8:21]  3 tn Heb “I go about in black [i.e., mourning clothes]. Dismay has seized me.”

[48:25]  4 tn Heb “The horn of Moab will be cut off. His arm will be broken.” “Horn” and “arm” are both symbols of strength (see BDB 902 s.v. קֶרֶן 2 [and compare usage in Lam 2:3] and BDB 284 s.v. זְרוֹעַ 2 [and compare usage in 1 Sam 2:31]). The figures have been interpreted for the sake of clarity.

[48:25]  5 tn Heb “Oracle of the Lord.”
