UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

(Occurrence 0) Jacob you worm, and you men of Israel

(Some words not found in UHB: not fear worm_of Yaˊₐqoⱱ/(Jacob) men_of Yisrael I help,you declares_of YHWH and,redeemer_of,your holy_of Yisrael )

Here “Jacob” and “men of Israel” mean the same thing. Alternate translation: “you people of Israel who are like worms”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

(Occurrence 0) Jacob you worm

(Some words not found in UHB: not fear worm_of Yaˊₐqoⱱ/(Jacob) men_of Yisrael I help,you declares_of YHWH and,redeemer_of,your holy_of Yisrael )

This could mean: (1) that this refers to the opinions of other nations regarding the people of Israel or (2) that this refers to Israel’s own opinion of themselves. Yahweh speaks of their insignificance as if they were a worm.

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

(Occurrence 0) this is Yahweh’s declaration

(Some words not found in UHB: not fear worm_of Yaˊₐqoⱱ/(Jacob) men_of Yisrael I help,you declares_of YHWH and,redeemer_of,your holy_of Yisrael )

Yahweh speaks of himself by name to express the certainty of what he is declaring. Translate as in Isaiah 30:1. Alternate translation: “this is what Yahweh has declared” or “this is what I, Yahweh, have declared”

(Occurrence 0) Holy One of Israel

(Some words not found in UHB: not fear worm_of Yaˊₐqoⱱ/(Jacob) men_of Yisrael I help,you declares_of YHWH and,redeemer_of,your holy_of Yisrael )

See how you translated this phrase in Isaiah 1:4.
