Yesaya 5:15

5:15 Men will be humiliated,

they will be brought low;

the proud will be brought low. ¹ 

Yesaya 43:27

43:27 The father of your nation ²  sinned;

your spokesmen ³  rebelled against me.

Yesaya 57:2

57:2 Those who live uprightly enter a place of peace;

they rest on their beds. ⁴ 

[5:15]  ¹ tn Heb “men are brought down, men are brought low, the eyes of pride are brought low.”

[43:27]  ² tn Heb “your first father.” This could refer to Abraham (see 51:2), but elsewhere in Isaiah he does not appear in a negative light (see 29:22; 41:8; 63:16). A more likely candidate is Jacob/Israel, also referred to as the nation’s “father” elsewhere (see 58:14; 63:16).

[43:27]  ³ tn On the meaning of the term לִיץ (lits), see HALOT 590 s.v. מֵלִיץ. This may refer to the nation’s prophets, priests, and/or kings.

[57:2]  ⁴ tn Heb “he enters peace, they rest on their beds, the one who walks straight ahead of himself.” The tomb is here viewed in a fairly positive way as a place where the dead are at peace and sleep undisturbed.
