OET interlinear ISA 10:27

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

(Occurrence 0) his burden is lifted from your shoulder and his yoke from off your neck

(Some words not found in UHB: and=it_was in_the=day (the)=that removed burden_of,his from=under shoulders_of,your and,yoke_of,his from=under neck_of,your and,broken yoke from=face/in_front_of fat )

“Yahweh will lift the burden that Assyria has put on your shoulder, and he will remove the yoke that they have put on your neck.” These two phrases mean basically the same thing. The words “burden” and “yoke” refer to slavery. If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “Yahweh will remove the Assyrians who oppress you and will stop them from making you their slaves” (See also: figs-parallelism and figs-metonymy)

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

(Occurrence 0) the yoke will be destroyed because of fatness

(Some words not found in UHB: and=it_was in_the=day (the)=that removed burden_of,his from=under shoulders_of,your and,yoke_of,his from=under neck_of,your and,broken yoke from=face/in_front_of fat )

This expression suggests that the neck of the animal that is wearing the yoke will become too fat to fit the yoke any longer. This is a metaphor for Israel becoming so strong that the Assyrians can no longer rule them. If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “your neck will become so fat that it will break the yoke” or “you will become so strong that you will no longer be the Assyrians’ slaves” (See also: figs-metaphor)
