| NET © Notes |
1 tn The translation here reflects the emphasizing infinitive absolute before the verb. 2 tn Heb “There will come through the gates of this city the kings…riding in chariots and on horses, they and their officials…” The structure of the original text is broken up here because of the long compound subject which would make the English sentence too long. Compare 17:25 for the structure and wording of this sentence. |
