Yesaya 7:20

7:20 At that time ¹  the sovereign master will use a razor hired from the banks of the Euphrates River, ²  the king of Assyria, to shave the head and the pubic hair; ³  it will also shave off the beard.

Yesaya 10:24

10:24 So ⁴  here is what the sovereign master, the Lord who commands armies, says: “My people who live in Zion, do not be afraid of Assyria, even though they beat you with a club and lift their cudgel against you as Egypt did. ⁵ 

Yesaya 11:11

11:11 At that time ⁶  the sovereign master ⁷  will again lift his hand ⁸  to reclaim ⁹  the remnant of his people ¹⁰  from Assyria, Egypt, Pathros, ¹¹  Cush, ¹²  Elam, Shinar, ¹³  Hamath, and the seacoasts. ¹⁴ 

Yesaya 27:13

27:13 At that time ¹⁵  a large ¹⁶  trumpet will be blown, and the ones lost ¹⁷  in the land of Assyria will come, as well as the refugees in ¹⁸  the land of Egypt. They will worship the Lord on the holy mountain in Jerusalem. ¹⁹ 

Yesaya 36:16

36:16 Don’t listen to Hezekiah!’ For this is what the king of Assyria says, ‘Send me a token of your submission and surrender to me. ²⁰  Then each of you may eat from his own vine and fig tree and drink water from his own cistern,

Yesaya 37:33

37:33 So this is what the Lord says about the king of Assyria:

‘He will not enter this city,

nor will he shoot an arrow here. ²¹ 

He will not attack it with his shielded warriors, ²² 

nor will he build siege works against it.

[7:20]  ¹ tn Heb “in that day” (so ASV, NASB); KJV “In the same day.”

[7:20]  ² tn Heb “the river” (so KJV); NASB “the Euphrates.” The name of the river has been supplied in the present translation for clarity.

[7:20]  ³ tn Heb “the hair of the feet.” The translation assumes that the word “feet” is used here as a euphemism for the genitals. See BDB 920 s.v. רֶגֶל.

[10:24]  ⁴ tn Heb “therefore.” The message that follows is one of encouragement, for it focuses on the eventual destruction of the Assyrians. Consequently “therefore” relates back to vv. 5-21, not to vv. 22-23, which must be viewed as a brief parenthesis in an otherwise positive speech.

[10:24]  ⁵ tn Heb “in the way [or “manner”] of Egypt.”

[11:11]  ⁶ tn Or “in that day” (KJV). The verb that introduces this verse serves as a discourse particle and is untranslated; see note on “in the future” in 2:2.

[11:11]  ⁷ tn The Hebrew term translated “sovereign master” here is אֲדֹנָי (’adonai).

[11:11]  ⁸ tc The Hebrew text reads, “the sovereign master will again, a second time, his hand.” The auxiliary verb יוֹסִיף (yosif), which literally means “add,” needs a main verb to complete it. Consequently many emend שֵׁנִית (shenit, “a second time”) to an infinitive. Some propose the form שַׁנֹּת (shannot, a Piel infinitive construct from שָׁנָה, shanah) and relate it semantically to an Arabic cognate meaning “to be high.” If the Hebrew text is retained a verb must be supplied. “Second time” would allude back to the events of the Exodus (see vv. 15-16).

[11:11]  ⁹ tn Or “acquire”; KJV, ASV, NASB, NRSV “recover.”

[11:11]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “the remnant of his people who remain.”

[11:11]  ¹¹ sn Perhaps a reference to Upper (i.e., southern) Egypt (so NIV, NLT; NCV “South Egypt”).

[11:11]  ¹² tn Or “Ethiopia” (NAB, NRSV, NLT).

[11:11]  ¹³ tn Or “Babylonia” (NIV, NCV, TEV, NLT).

[11:11]  ¹⁴ tn Or perhaps, “the islands of the sea.”

[27:13]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “and it will be in that day.” The verb that introduces this verse serves as a discourse particle and is untranslated; see note on “in the future” in 2:2.

[27:13]  ¹⁶ tn Traditionally, “great” (KJV, NAB, NASB, NIV, NLT); CEV “loud.”

[27:13]  ¹⁷ tn Or “the ones perishing.”

[27:13]  ¹⁸ tn Or “the ones driven into.”

[36:16]  ²⁰ tn Heb “make with me a blessing and come out to me.”

[37:33]  ²¹ tn Heb “there” (so KJV, NASB, NRSV). In terms of English style “here” is expected in collocation with “this” in the previous line.

[37:33]  ²² tn Heb “[with] a shield” (so ASV, NASB, NRSV).
