ISA 10:27 Parallel Verse View

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for Bible-translators and others doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still early looks into the drafted texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

FBV At that time he will remove the burden from your shoulders and the yoke from your neck. The yoke will be broken because of the anointing with oil.[fn]

10:27 “Anointing with oil:” literally, “before the oil/fat.” The meaning of this phrase is much debated. Some suggest that this means that Israel has symbolically grown so fat that the yoke no longer fits. Jewish tradition however associates it with the anointing of King Hezekiah, and some Christian writers have pointed to Christ as the Messiah, the “anointed one.”

T4T Some day, Yahweh will cause the army of Assyria to stop oppressing you, his people;
⇔ he will end your suffering and your being slaves of the people of Assyria [MET];
⇔ he will take away the load that you people of Judah have been carrying,
⇔ and cause things to go well for you.

LEB ¶ And this shall happen: on that day,
• he will remove his burden from your shoulder
• and his yoke from your neck,
• and a yoke will be destroyed because of fat .[fn]

10:27 The meaning of this phrase is uncertain, leading to the conjecture that it belongs with the next verse and by a different word division could mean “he has gone up from Jeshimon”; alternatively, “fat” could be a metaphor for prosperity

BBE And in that day the weight which he put on your back will be taken away, and his yoke broken from off your neck.

removed burden_of,its from=under shoulder_of,your and,yoke_of,its from=under neck_of,your

Isaiah is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [his burden will turn away from upon your shoulder, and his yoke will turn away from upon your neck,]

Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns

יָס֤וּר סֻבֳּל⁠וֹ֙ מֵ⁠עַ֣ל שִׁכְמֶ֔⁠ךָ וְ⁠עֻלּ֖⁠וֹ מֵ⁠עַ֣ל צַוָּארֶ֑⁠ךָ

removed burden_of,its from=under shoulder_of,your and,yoke_of,its from=under neck_of,your

In both incidences, the pronoun his refers to the king of Assyria. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [the burden of the king of Assyria will turn away from upon your shoulder, and the yoke of the king of Assyria from upon your neck]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

יָס֤וּר סֻבֳּל⁠וֹ֙ מֵ⁠עַ֣ל שִׁכְמֶ֔⁠ךָ

removed burden_of,its from=under shoulder_of,your

Isaiah is speaking of a burden as if it were a living thing that could turn away from upon your shoulder. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [he will stop oppressing youl ]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

וְ⁠עֻלּ֖⁠וֹ מֵ⁠עַ֣ל צַוָּארֶ֑⁠ךָ

and,yoke_of,its from=under neck_of,your

Isaiah is speaking as if Assyrian domination were a yoke on Israel’s neck. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [and his domination from upon you]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

וְ⁠חֻבַּ֥ל עֹ֖ל

and,it_will_be_broken yoke

The expression will be destroyed is a passive verbal form. If it would be unnatural to use that form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who does the action, the context indicates that it is Yahweh. Alternate translation: [Yahweh will destroy the yoke]

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

מִ⁠פְּנֵי־שָֽׁמֶן

from=face/in_front_of fat

Isaiah is using from the face of fatness as a common expression of the culture to mean “because of prosperity” or “because of abundance.” If this phrase does not have that meaning for your readers, you could use a comparable expression from your language that does have that meaning, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [because of prosperity]
