40:27 Why do you say, Jacob,
Why do you say, Israel,
“The Lord is not aware of what is happening to me, 1
My God is not concerned with my vindication”? 2
51:7 Listen to me, you who know what is right,
you people who are aware of my law! 3
Don’t be afraid of the insults of men;
don’t be discouraged because of their abuse!
1 tn Heb “my way is hidden from the Lord” (so NAB, NASB, NIV, NRSV).
2 tn Heb “and from my God my justice passes away”; NRSV “my right is disregarded by my God.”
3 tn Heb “people (who have) my law in their heart.”
