Isaiah 41:25

Context

41:25 I have stirred up one out of the north 1  and he advances,

one from the eastern horizon who prays in my name. 2 

He steps on 3  rulers as if they were clay,

like a potter treading the clay.

Isaiah 44:17

Context

44:17 With the rest of it he makes a god, his idol;

he bows down to it and worships it.

He prays to it, saying,

‘Rescue me, for you are my god!’

1 sn That is, Cyrus the Persian. See the note at v. 2.

2 tn Heb “[one] from the rising of the sun [who] calls in my name.”

3 tn The Hebrew text has וְיָבֹא (vÿyavo’, “and he comes”), but this is likely a corruption of an original וַיָּבָס (vayyavas), from בּוּס (bus, “step on”).
