9:8This temple will become a heap of ruins;14 everyone who passes by it will be shocked and will hiss out their scorn,15 saying, ‘Why did the Lord do this to this land and this temple?’
Footnotes
- 14 Heb “and this house will be high [or elevated].” The statement makes little sense in this context, which predicts the desolation that judgment will bring. Some treat the clause as concessive, “Even though this temple is lofty [now].” Others, following the lead of several ancient versions, emend the text to, “this temple will become a heap of ruins.”
- 15 Heb “hiss,” or perhaps “whistle.” This refers to a derisive sound one would make when taunting an object of ridicule.
