Footnotes
- 10 Heb “they will be like” (so , ).
- 11 The phrase כְּעֲנַן־בֹּקֶר (ké’anan-boqer, “like a cloud of the morning”) occurs also in Hos 6:4 in a similar simile. The Hebrew poets and prophets refer to morning clouds as a simile for transitoriness (Job 7:9; Isa 44:22; Hos 6:4; 13:3; עָנָן 1.b; 778 עָנָן 1.c).
- 12 Heb “like the early rising dew that goes away”; “like the dew that vanishes early in the day.”
- 13 Heb “storm-driven away”; , “driven with the whirlwind out.” The verb יְסֹעֵר (yéso’er, Poel imperfect 3rd person masculine singular from סָעַר, sa’ar, “to storm”) often refers to the intense action of strong, raging storm winds (e.g., Jonah 1:11, 13). The related nouns refer to “heavy gale,” “storm wind,” and “high wind” ( 704 סָעַר; סער). The verb is used figuratively to describe the intensity of God’s destruction of the wicked whom he will “blow away” (Isa 54:11; Hos 13:3; Hab 3:14; Zech 7:14; 704 ; ).
