56:7Because they are bent on violence, do not let them escape!18
Footnotes
- 18 Heb “because of wickedness, deliverance to them.” As it stands, the makes no sense. The negative particle אַיִן (’ayin, “there is not,” which is due to dittography of the immediately preceding אָוֶן, ’aven, “wickedness”), should probably be added before “deliverance” (see , note a). The presence of an imperative in the next line (note “bring down”) suggests that this line should be translated as a prayer as well, “may there not be deliverance to them.”
- 19 Heb “in anger.” The pronoun “your” is supplied in the translation for clarification.
- 20 Or perhaps “people” in a general sense.
