UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

(Occurrence 0) Fortified cities will disappear from Ephraim

(Some words not found in UHB: and,disappear fortified_city from,Ephraim and,kingdom from,Damascus and,remnant Rām like,glory sons_of Yisrael be declares YHWH armies/angels )

Ephraim was the largest tribe in Israel. Here it represents the entire northern kingdom of Israel. Alternate translation: “Strong cities will disappear from Israel”

(Occurrence 0) will disappear

(Some words not found in UHB: and,disappear fortified_city from,Ephraim and,kingdom from,Damascus and,remnant Rām like,glory sons_of Yisrael be declares YHWH armies/angels )

This does not mean that they will vanish, but that the cities will be destroyed.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

(Occurrence 0) the kingdom from Damascus

(Some words not found in UHB: and,disappear fortified_city from,Ephraim and,kingdom from,Damascus and,remnant Rām like,glory sons_of Yisrael be declares YHWH armies/angels )

The words “will disappear” are understood from the previous phrase. Damascus was where the king of Aram ruled from. The kingdom disappearing represents the king no longer having royal power. Alternate translation: “the kingdom will disappear from Damascus” or “there will be no royal power in Damascus” (See also: figs-metonymy)

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person

(Occurrence 0) this is the declaration of Yahweh of hosts

(Some words not found in UHB: and,disappear fortified_city from,Ephraim and,kingdom from,Damascus and,remnant Rām like,glory sons_of Yisrael be declares YHWH armies/angels )

Yahweh speaks of himself by name to express the certainty of what he is declaring. Translate as in Isaiah 14:22. Alternate translation: “this is what Yahweh of hosts has declared” or “this is what I, Yahweh of hosts, have declared”
