Isaiah 30:14

Context

30:14 It shatters in pieces like a clay jar,

so shattered to bits that none of it can be salvaged. 1 

Among its fragments one cannot find a shard large enough 2 

to scoop a hot coal from a fire 3 

or to skim off water from a cistern.” 4 

1 tn Heb “Its shattering is like the shattering of a jug of [i.e., “made by”] potters, [so] shattered one cannot save [any of it].”

2 tn The words “large enough” are supplied in the translation for clarification.

3 tn Heb “to remove fire from the place of kindling.”

4 tn On the meaning of גֶבֶא (geveh, “cistern”) see HALOT 170 s.v.
