Psalms 94:2

94:2 Rise up, O judge of the earth!

Pay back the proud!

Isaiah 26:11

26:11 O Lord, you are ready to act, ¹ 

but they don’t even notice.

They will see and be put to shame by your angry judgment against humankind, ² 

yes, fire will consume your enemies. ³ 

Isaiah 33:10

33:10 “Now I will rise up,” says the Lord.

“Now I will exalt myself;

now I will magnify myself. ⁴ 

Micah 5:9

5:9 Lift your hand triumphantly against your adversaries; ⁵ 

may all your enemies be destroyed! ⁶ 

[26:11]  ¹ tn Heb “O Lord, your hand is lifted up.”

[26:11]  ² tn Heb “They will see and be ashamed of zeal of people.” Some take the prefixed verbs as jussives and translate the statement as a prayer, “Let them see and be put to shame.” The meaning of the phrase קִנְאַת־עָם (qin’at-’am, “zeal of people”) is unclear. The translation assumes that this refers to God’s angry judgment upon people. Another option is to understand the phrase as referring to God’s zealous, protective love of his covenant people. In this case one might translate, “by your zealous devotion to your people.”

[26:11]  ³ tn Heb “yes, fire, your enemies, will consume them.” Many understand the prefixed verb form to be jussive and translate, “let [fire] consume” (cf. NAB, NIV, NRSV). The mem suffixed to the verb may be enclitic; if a pronominal suffix, it refers back to “your enemies.”

[33:10]  ⁴ tn Or “lift myself up” (KJV); NLT “show my power and might.”

[5:9]  ⁵ tn Heb “let your hand be lifted against your adversaries.”

[5:9]  ⁶ tn Heb “be cut off.”
