Yesaya 14:10

14:10 All of them respond to you, saying:

‘You too have become weak like us!

You have become just like us!

Yesaya 24:9

24:9 They no longer sing and drink wine; ¹ 

the beer tastes bitter to those who drink it.

Yesaya 30:31

30:31 Indeed, the Lord’s shout will shatter Assyria; ² 

he will beat them with a club.

Yesaya 37:18

37:18 It is true, Lord, that the kings of Assyria have destroyed all the nations ³  and their lands.

Yesaya 41:3

41:3 He pursues them and passes by unharmed; ⁴ 

he advances with great speed. ⁵ 

[24:9]  ¹ tn Heb “with a song they do not drink wine.”

[30:31]  ² tn Heb “Indeed by the voice of the Lord Assyria will be shattered.”

[37:18]  ³ tn The Hebrew text here has “all the lands,” but the parallel text in 2 Kgs 19:17 has “the nations.”

[41:3]  ⁴ tn Heb “[in] peace”; KJV, ASV “safely”; NASB “in safety”; NIV “unscathed.”

[41:3]  ⁵ tn Heb “a way with his feet he does not come [or “enter”].” One could translate, “by a way he was not [previously] entering with his feet.” This would mean that he is advancing into new territory and expanding his conquests. The present translation assumes this is a hyperbolic description to his speedy advance. He moves so quickly he does not enter the way with his feet, i.e., his feet don’t even touch the ground. See C. R. North, Second Isaiah, 94.
