1. Isaiah 52:5 tn Heb “and now what [following the marginal reading (Qere)] to me here?”
2. Isaiah 52:5 tn The verb appears to be a Hiphil form from the root יָלַל (yalal, “howl”), perhaps here in the sense of “mock.” Some emend the form to יְהוֹלָלוֹ (y^eholalo) and understand a Polel form of the root הָלַל meaning here “mock, taunt.”
3. Isaiah 52:5 tn The verb is apparently a Hitpolal form (with assimilated tav, ת) from the root נָאַץ (naʾats), but GKC 151-52 §55.b explains it as a mixed form, combining Pual and Hitpolel readings.
