Yesaya 13:15

13:15 Everyone who is caught will be stabbed;

everyone who is seized ¹  will die ²  by the sword.

Yesaya 49:24

49:24 Can spoils be taken from a warrior,

or captives be rescued from a conqueror? ³ 

[13:15]  ¹ tn Heb “carried off,” i.e., grabbed from the fleeing crowd. See HALOT 764 s.v. ספה.

[13:15]  ² tn Heb “will fall” (so KJV, NIV, NRSV); NLT “will be run through with a sword.”

[49:24]  ³ tc The Hebrew text has צָדִיק (tsadiq, “a righteous [one]”), but this makes no sense in the parallelism. The Qumran scroll 1QIsa^a reads correctly עריץ (“violent [one], tyrant”; see v. 25).
