1 tc So MT, LXX, and Vulgate; many Hebrew
2 tn The verse describes the similar situation recorded in Judg 9:20.
3 tn For similar imagery, see Isa 1:21-26; Jer 6:27-30.
4 sn Tyre was located on the Mediterranean coast north of Israel.
5 map For location see Map5 B1; Map6 F3; Map7 E2; Map8 F2; Map10 B3; JP1 F4; JP2 F4; JP3 F4; JP4 F4.
6 tn Heb “I will be filled.”
7 sn That is, Jerusalem.
8 sn The expression “breaking the arm” indicates the removal of power (Ps 10:15; 37:17; Job 38:15; Jer 48:25).
9 sn This may refer to the event recorded in Jer 37:5.
10 tn Heb “the sea,” referring to the Dead Sea. This has been specified in the translation for clarity.
11 tn Heb “to the sea, those which are brought out.” The reading makes no sense. The text is best emended to read “filthy” (i.e., stagnant). See L. C. Allen, Ezekiel (WBC), 2:273.
12 tn Heb “the waters become healed.”
13 tn Heb “two rivers,” perhaps under the influence of Zech 14:8. The translation follows the LXX and other ancient versions in reading the singular, which is demanded by the context (see vv. 5-7, 9b, 12).
14 tn Heb “will be healed.”
