Judges 5:23

Context

5:23 ‘Call judgment down on 3  Meroz,’ says the Lord’s angelic 4  messenger;

‘Be sure 5  to call judgment down on 6  those who live there,

because they did not come to help in the Lord’s battle, 7 

to help in the Lord’s battle against the warriors.’ 8 

1 tn Heb “in the eyes of the Lord” (also later in this verse).

2 tn Heb “strengthened Eglon…against Israel.”

3 tn Heb “Curse Meroz.”

4 tn The adjective “angelic” is interpretive.

5 tn Heb “Curse, cursing.” The Hebrew construction is emphatic.

6 tn Heb “[to] curse.”

7 tn Heb “to the help of the Lord” (the same Hebrew phrase occurs in the following line). Another option is to read “to aid the Lord’s cause.”

8 tn Or “along with the other warriors.”
