Isaiah 3:25

Context

3:25 Your 1  men will fall by the sword,

your strong men will die in battle. 2 

Isaiah 13:15

Context

13:15 Everyone who is caught will be stabbed;

everyone who is seized 3  will die 4  by the sword.

1 tn The pronoun is feminine singular, suggesting personified Zion, as representative of its women, is the addressee. The reference to “her gates’ in v. 26 makes this identification almost certain.

2 tn Heb “your strength in battle.” The verb in the first clause provides the verbal idea for the second clause.

3 tn Heb “carried off,” i.e., grabbed from the fleeing crowd. See HALOT 764 s.v. ספה.

4 tn Heb “will fall” (so KJV, NIV, NRSV); NLT “will be run through with a sword.”
