51:49“Babylon must fall100
because of the Israelites she has killed,101
just as the earth’s mortally wounded fell
because of Babylon.102
Footnotes
- 100 The infinitive construct is used here to indicate what is about to take place. See §36.2.3g.
- 101 Heb “the slain of Israel.” The words “because of” are supplied in the translation for clarification. The preceding context makes it clear that Babylon would be judged for its atrocities against Israel (see especially 50:33–34; 51:10, 24, 35).
- 102 The juxtaposition of גַם … גַם (gam … gam), often “both … and,” here indicates correspondence. See 169 גַּם 4. Appropriately Babylon will fall slain just as her victims, including God’s covenant people, did.
