| NET Notes |
1 sn This statement appears to have a sarcastic tone. The royal advisers who are advocating an alliance with Egypt think they are wise, but the Lord possesses wisdom as well and will thwart their efforts. 2 tn Heb “and he does not turn aside [i.e., “retract”] his words”; NIV “does not take back his words.” 3 tn Heb “and he will arise against the house of the wicked.” 4 sn That is, Egypt. 5 tn Heb “and against the help of the doers of sin.” |
