Isaiah 3:18

3:18 At that time the sovereign master will remove their beautiful ankle jewelry, neck ornaments, crescent shaped ornaments,

Isaiah 21:6

21:6 For this is what the sovereign master has told me:

“Go, post a guard!

He must report what he sees.

Isaiah 37:34

37:34 He will go back the way he came –

he will not enter this city,’ says the Lord.

Isaiah 50:5

50:5 The sovereign Lord has spoken to me clearly;

I have not rebelled,

I have not turned back.


sn The translation assumes that the direct quotation ends with v. 17. The introductory formula “in that day” and the shift from a poetic to prosaic style indicate that a new speech unit begins in v. 18.

tn Or “in that day” (KJV).

tn Or “the beauty of [their] ankle jewelry.”

tn The Hebrew term translated “sovereign master” here and in vv. 8, 16 is אֲדֹנָי (’adonay).

tn Or perhaps, “makes me obedient.” The text reads literally, “has opened for me an ear.”
