Footnotes
- 130 Heb “your dread.” See note on .
- 131 The term “whirlwind” (, , ; cf. , “storm”) refers to a devastating storm and is related to the verb שׁוֹא (sho’, “to crash into ruins”; see 996 שׁוֹאָה). Disaster will come swiftly and crush them like a devastating whirlwind.
- 132 Heb “your disaster.” The 2nd person masculine singular suffix is an objective genitive: “disaster strikes you.”
- 133 Heb “like a storm.” The noun סוּפָה (sufah, “storm”) is often used in similes to describe sudden devastation (Isa 5:28; Hos 8:7; Amos 1:14).
- 134 Heb “distress and trouble.” The nouns “distress and trouble” mean almost the same thing so they may form a hendiadys. The two similar sounding terms צוּקָה (tsuqah) and צָרָה (tsarah) also form a wordplay (paronomasia) which also links them together.
