NET Notes

¹tn Or “desolate” (NAB, NASB); NIV, NRSV, NLT “deserted.”

²tn Heb “the one passing by on the road ceases.”

³tn Heb “one breaks a treaty”; NAB “Covenants are broken.”

⁴tc The Hebrew text reads literally, “he despises cities.” The term עָרִים (’arim, “cities”) is probably a corruption of an original עֵדִים (’edim, “[legal] witnesses”), a reading that is preserved in the Qumran scroll 1QIsa^a. Confusion of dalet (ד) and resh (ר) is a well-attested scribal error.

⁵tn Heb “he does not regard human beings.”
