| (0.30) | (Isa 16:5) | 1 tn Heb “and a throne will be established in faithfulness, and he will sit on it in reliability, in the tent of David.” |
| (0.30) | (Isa 11:3) | 2 tn Heb “by what appears to his eyes”; KJV “after the sight of his eyes”; NIV “by what he sees with his eyes.” |
| (0.30) | (Isa 10:27) | 2 tn Heb “he [i.e., the Lord] will remove his [i.e, Assyria’s] burden from upon your shoulder.” |
| (0.30) | (Isa 8:14) | 3 tn These words are supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons. וְהָיָה (vehayah, “and he will be”) does double duty in the parallel structure of the verse. |
| (0.30) | (Isa 7:13) | 1 tn Heb “and he said.” The subject is unexpressed, but the reference to “my God” at the end of the verse indicates the prophet is speaking. |
| (0.30) | (Isa 5:26) | 2 tn Heb “he.” Singular forms are used throughout vv. 26-30 to describe this nation, but for stylistic reasons the translation uses the plural for these collective singulars. |
| (0.30) | (Isa 5:16) | 2 tn Heb “by judgment/justice.” When God justly punishes the evildoers denounced in the preceding verses, he will be recognized as a mighty warrior. |
| (0.30) | (Isa 2:3) | 2 tn Heb “his ways.” In this context God’s “ways” are the standards of moral conduct he decrees that people should live by. |

The direct discourse (“For whom am I toiling and depriving myself of pleasure?”) is not introduced with an introductory structure. As in the LXX, some translations suggest that these words are spoken by a lonely workaholic, e.g., “He says…” (NAB, NEB, ASV, NIV, NRSV). Others suggest that this is a question that he never asks himself, e.g., “Yet he never asks himself…” (KJV, RSV, MLB, YLT, Douay, NASB, Moffatt). |
| (0.30) | (Pro 29:19) | 3 tn Heb “for he understands, but there is no answer.” The concessive idea (“although”) is taken from the juxtaposition of the two parts. |
| (0.30) | (Pro 29:19) | 4 sn To say “there is no answer” means that this servant does not obey—he has to be trained in a different way. |
| (0.30) | (Pro 29:1) | 3 sn The stubborn person refuses to listen; he will suddenly be destroyed when the calamity strikes (e.g., Prov 6:15; 13:18; 15:10). |
