TSNTyndale Study Notes:

46:2-12 Jeremiah used the results of a battle known to Jehoiakim to warn him and the people of Jerusalem that Egypt could not protect them from Babylon. Pharaoh Neco had thought that the time was ripe to become the dominant power in the ancient Near East, so he moved north in 609 BC. After Neco spent several years trying to help fragments of the Assyrian army stop the westward movements of the Babylonian army, he was soundly defeated at Carchemish on the Euphrates River in 605 BC. Soon after that, the Babylonian army surrounded Jerusalem and forced Jehoiakim to become a vassal of Babylon.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

(Occurrence 0) What am I seeing here?

(Some words not found in UHB: why see they(emph) terrified turning back and,warriors,their beaten_down and,place_of_refuge fled and=not look_back terror on,all_around declares YHWH )

The word “I” here refer to Yahweh. Yahweh uses a question to introduce the vision and to draw attention to what he says next. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this question as a statement. Alternate translation: “Look at what is happening here”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

(Occurrence 0) They are filled with terror

(Some words not found in UHB: why see they(emph) terrified turning back and,warriors,their beaten_down and,place_of_refuge fled and=not look_back terror on,all_around declares YHWH )

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind the word terror, you can express the same idea with a verbal form such as “terrified.” Alternate translation: “The Egyptian soldiers are terrified”
