9:21 Manasseh fought against 1 Ephraim,
and Ephraim against Manasseh;
together they fought against Judah.
Despite all this, his anger does not subside,
and his hand is ready to strike again. 2
1 tn The words “fought against” are supplied in the translation both here and later in this verse for stylistic reasons.
2 tn Heb “in all this his anger is not turned, and still his hand is outstretched” (KJV and ASV both similar); NIV “his hand is still upraised.”
