23:11 The Lord stretched out his hand over the sea, 1
he shook kingdoms;
he 2 gave the order
to destroy Canaan’s fortresses. 3
1 tn Heb “his hand he stretched out over the sea.”
2 tn Heb “the Lord.” For stylistic reasons the pronoun (“he”) has been used in the translation here.
3 tn Heb “concerning Canaan, to destroy her fortresses.” NIV, NLT translate “Canaan” as “Phoenicia” here.
