O God, you do not go into battle with our armies.

like a warrior he inspires himself for battle; ²

he shows his enemies his power. ³ 

Mikha 2:13

[5:24]  ¹ tn Heb “camp” (so NAB).

[42:13]  ² tn Heb “like a man of war he stirs up zeal” (NIV similar).

[42:13]  ³ tn Or perhaps, “he triumphs over his enemies” (cf. NIV); NLT “will crush all his enemies.”

[2:13]  ⁴ tn Heb “the one who breaks through goes up before them.” The verb form is understood as a perfect of certitude, emphasizing the certainty of this coming event.

[2:13]  ⁵ tn The three verb forms (a perfect and two preterites with vav [ו] consecutive) indicate certitude.

[2:13]  sn The “fold” from which the sheep/people break out is probably a reference to their place of exile.

[2:13]  ⁶ tn The verb form (a preterite with vav [ו] consecutive) indicates certitude.

[2:13]  ⁷ tn Heb “the Lord [will be] at their head.”
