Footnotes
- Isaiah 23:7 tn Heb “Is this to you, boisterous one?” The pronoun “you” is masculine plural, like the imperatives in v. 6, so it is likely addressed to the Egyptians and residents of the coast. “Boisterous one” is a feminine singular form, probably referring to the personified city of Tyre.
- Isaiah 23:7 tn Heb “in the days of antiquity [is] her beginning.”

whose feet have taken her
to settle in far-off lands?
