Isaiah 9:16
New English Translation
16 The leaders of this nation were misleading people,
and the people being led were destroyed.[a]
Footnotes
- Isaiah 9:16 tn Heb “and the ones being led were swallowed up.” Instead of taking מְבֻלָּעִים (mebullaʿim) from בָּלַע (balaʿ, “to swallow”), HALOT 134 s.v. בלע proposes a rare homonymic root בלע (“confuse”) here.
