“Go, post a guard!
He must report what he sees.
21:7 When he sees chariots,
teams of horses, 2
riders on donkeys,
riders on camels,
he must be alert,
very alert.”

1 tn The Hebrew term translated “sovereign master” here and in vv. 8, 16 is אֲדֹנָי (’adonay).
2 tn Or “a pair of horsemen.”
3 tn Heb “lays bare”; NLT “will demonstrate.”
4 tn Heb “his holy arm.” This is a metonymy for his power.
5 tn Heb “the remote regions,” which here stand for the extremities and everything in between.
6 tn Heb “the deliverance of our God.” “God” is a subjective genitive here.
