Discovery BoxIsaiah 3:8 
Context3:8 Jerusalem certainly stumbles,
Judah falls,
for their words and their actions offend the Lord; 1
they rebel against his royal authority. 2
Isaiah 22:8

Isaiah 38:9
Context38:9 This is the prayer of King Hezekiah of Judah when he was sick and then recovered from his illness:
1 tn Heb “for their tongue and their deeds [are] to the Lord.”
2 tn Heb “to rebel [against] the eyes of his majesty.” The word כָּבוֹד (kavod) frequently refers to the Lord’s royal splendor that is an outward manifestation of his authority as king.
3 tn Heb “he,” i.e., the enemy invader. NASB, by its capitalization of the pronoun, takes this to refer to the Lord.
4 tn Heb “covering.”
5 tn Heb “in that day” (so KJV), likewise at the beginning of v. 12.
6 sn Perhaps this refers to a royal armory, or to Solomon’s “House of the Forest of Lebanon,” where weapons may have been kept (see 1 Kgs 10:16-17).
