Mazmur 22:24
Konteks22:24 For he did not despise or detest the suffering 1 of the oppressed; 2
he did not ignore him; 3
when he cried out to him, he responded. 4
Yeremia 13:11
Konteks13:11 For,’ I say, 5 ‘just as shorts cling tightly to a person’s body, so I bound the whole nation of Israel and the whole nation of Judah 6 tightly 7 to me.’ I intended for them to be my special people and to bring me fame, honor, and praise. 8 But they would not obey me.
Yeremia 33:9
Konteks33:9 All the nations will hear about all the good things which I will do to them. This city will bring me fame, honor, and praise before them for the joy that I bring it. The nations will tremble in awe at all the peace and prosperity that I will provide for it.’ 9
[22:24] 1 tn Or “affliction”; or “need.”
[22:24] 2 sn In this verse the psalmist refers to himself in the third person and characterizes himself as oppressed.
[22:24] 3 tn Heb “he did not hide his face from him.” For other uses of the idiom “hide the face” meaning “ignore,” see Pss 10:11; 13:1; 51:9. Sometimes the idiom carries the stronger idea of “reject” (see Pss 27:9; 88:14).
[13:11] 5 tn The words “I say” are “Oracle of the
[13:11] 6 tn Heb “all the house of Israel and all the house of Judah.”
[13:11] 7 tn It would be somewhat unnatural in English to render the play on the word translated here “cling tightly” and “bound tightly” in a literal way. They are from the same root word in Hebrew (דָּבַק, davaq), a word that emphasizes the closest of personal relationships and the loyalty connected with them. It is used, for example, of the relationship of a husband and a wife and the loyalty expected of them (cf. Gen 2:24; for other similar uses see Ruth 1:14; 2 Sam 20:2; Deut 11:22).
[13:11] 8 tn Heb “I bound them…in order that they might be to me for a people and for a name and for praise and for honor.” The sentence has been separated from the preceding and an equivalent idea expressed which is more in keeping with contemporary English style.
[33:9] 9 tn Heb “And it [the city] will be to me for a name for joy and for praise and for honor before all the nations of the earth which will hear of all the good things which I will do for them and which will be in awe and tremble for all the good things and all the peace [or prosperity] which I will do for them.” The long complex Hebrew sentence has been broken down to better conform with contemporary English style.
