NETBible

So their land will become an object of horror.¹ People will forever hiss out their scorn over it. All who pass that way will be filled with horror and will shake their heads in derision.²

NET Notes

¹tn There may be a deliberate double meaning involved here. The word translated here “an object of horror” refers both to destruction (cf. 2:15; 4:17) and the horror or dismay that accompanies it (cf. 5:30; 8:21). The fact that there is no conjunction or preposition in front of the noun “hissing” that follows this suggests that the reaction is in view here, not the cause.

²tn Heb “an object of lasting hissing. All who pass that way will be appalled and shake their head.”

²sn The actions of “shaking of the head” and “hissing” were obviously gestures of scorn and derision. See Lam 2:15-16.
