NETBible

The sovereign Lord confirms this oath by his very own life.¹ The Lord, the God who commands armies, is speaking: “I despise Jacob’s arrogance; I hate their² fortresses. I will hand over to their enemies³ the city of Samaria⁴ and everything in it.”

NET Notes

¹tn Heb “swears by his life”; or “swears by himself.”

²tn Heb “his,” referring to Jacob, which stands here for the nation of Israel.

³tn The words “to their enemies” are supplied in the translation for clarification.

⁴tn Heb “the city”; this probably refers to the city of Samaria (cf. 6:1), which in turn, by metonymy, represents the entire northern kingdom.
