Isaiah 48:11

48:11 For my sake alone I will act,

for how can I allow my name to be defiled?

I will not share my glory with anyone else!


tn The Hebrew text repeats לְמַעֲנִי (lÿmaani, “for my sake”) for emphasis.

tn The Hebrew text reads literally, “for how can it be defiled?” The subject of the verb is probably “name” (v. 9).

sn See 42:8.
