19:2 “I will provoke civil strife in Egypt, 1
brothers will fight with each other,
as will neighbors,
cities, and kingdoms. 2
26:13 O Lord, our God,
masters other than you have ruled us,
but we praise your name alone.
1 tn Heb I will provoke Egypt against Egypt” (NAB similar).
2 tn Heb “and they will fight, a man against his brother, and a man against his neighbor, city against city, kingdom against kingdom.” Civil strife will extend all the way from the domestic level to the provincial arena.
