Psalms 82:7

82:7 Yet you will die like mortals; ¹ 

you will fall like all the other rulers.” ² 

Isaiah 31:3

31:3 The Egyptians are mere humans, not God;

their horses are made of flesh, not spirit.

The Lord will strike with ³  his hand;

the one who helps will stumble

and the one being helped will fall.

Together they will perish. ⁴ 

[82:7]  ¹ tn Heb “men.” The point in the context is mortality, however, not maleness.

[82:7]  ² tn Heb “like one of the rulers.” The comparison does not necessarily imply that they are not rulers. The expression “like one of” can sometimes mean “as one of” (Gen 49:16; Obad 11) or “as any other of” (Judg 16:7, 11).

[31:3]  ³ tn Heb “will extend”; KJV, ASV, NASB, NCV “stretch out.”

[31:3]  ⁴ tn Heb “together all of them will come to an end.”
