38:13 Sheba and Dedan and the traders of Tarshish with all its young warriors ¹³  will say to you, “Have you come to loot? Have you assembled your armies to plunder, to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to haul away a great amount of spoils?”’

[14:13]  ¹ tn Heb “break its staff of bread.”

[26:2]  ² sn Tyre was located on the Mediterranean coast north of Israel.

[26:2]  ³ map For location see Map5 B1; Map6 F3; Map7 E2; Map8 F2; Map10 B3; JP1 F4; JP2 F4; JP3 F4; JP4 F4.

[26:2]  ⁴ tn Heb “I will be filled.”

[26:2]  ⁵ sn That is, Jerusalem.

[26:17]  ⁶ tn Heb “and they will lift up over you a lament and they will say to you.”

[26:17]  ⁷ tn Heb “O inhabitant.” The translation follows the LXX and understands a different Hebrew verb, meaning “cease,” behind the consonantal text. See L. C. Allen, Ezekiel [WBC], 2:72, and D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 2:43.

[26:17]  ⁸ tn Heb “she and her inhabitants who placed their terror to all her inhabitants.” The relationship of the final prepositional phrase to what precedes is unclear. The preposition probably has a specifying function here, drawing attention to Tyre’s inhabitants as the source of the terror mentioned prior to this. In this case, one might paraphrase verse 17b: “she and her inhabitants, who spread their terror; yes, her inhabitants (were the source of this terror).”

[36:11]  ⁹ sn These verbs occur together in Gen 1:22, 28; 9:1.

[36:11]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “your beginning.”

[38:8]  ¹¹ tn Heb “from the sword.”

[38:8]  ¹² tn Heb “it.”

[38:13]  ¹³ tn Heb “young lions.”

[48:18]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “ten thousand cubits” (i.e., 5.25 kilometers); the phrase occurs again later in this verse.
