38:23“All your wives and your children will be turned over to the Babylonians.47 You yourself will not escape from them but will be captured by the48 king of Babylon. This city will be burned down.”49
Footnotes
- 47 Heb “Chaldeans.” See the study note on for explanation.
- 48 Heb “you yourself will not escape from their hand but will be seized by [caught in] the hand of the king of Babylon.” Neither use of “hand” is natural to the English idiom.
- 49 This translation follows the reading of the Greek version and a few Hebrew . The majority of the Hebrew read “and you will burn down this city.” This reading is accepted by the majority of modern commentaries and English versions. Few of the commentaries, however, bother to explain the fact that the particle אֶת (’et), which normally marks the accusative object, is functioning here as the subject. For this point of grammar see 85 I אֵת 1.b. Or this may be another case where אֵת introduces a new subject (see 85 אֵת 3.α and see usage in 27:8; 36:22).
