Isaiah 65:9

Context

65:9 I will bring forth descendants from Jacob,

and from Judah people to take possession of my mountains.

My chosen ones will take possession of the land; 1 

my servants will live there.

Isaiah 65:15

Context

65:15 Your names will live on in the curse formulas of my chosen ones. 2 

The sovereign Lord will kill you,

but he will give his servants another name.

1 tn Heb “it.” The third feminine singular pronominal suffix probably refers to the land which contains the aforementioned mountains.

2 tn Heb “you will leave your name for an oath to my chosen ones.”

sn For an example of such a curse formula see Jer 29:22.
