NETBible

NET Notes

¹tn Heb “the edicts of Omri are kept, and all the deeds of the house of Ahab.”

²tn Heb “and you walk in their plans.”

²sn The Omride dynasty, of which Ahab was the most infamous king, had a reputation for implementing unjust and oppressive measures. See 1 Kgs 21.

³tn The Hebrew term שַׁמָּה (shammah) can refer to “destruction; ruin,” or to the reaction it produces in those who witness the destruction.

⁴tn Heb “her”; the referent (the city) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

⁵tn Heb “[an object] of hissing,” which was a way of taunting someone.

⁶tc The translation assumes an emendation of the MT’s עַמִּי (’ammi, “my people”) to עַמִּים (’ammim, “nations”).

⁶tn Heb “and the reproach of my people you will bear.” The second person verb is plural here, in contrast to the singular forms used in vv. 13-15.
