(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)

This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

judgment - justice, which requires that I should restore My people, and give them double in compensation for their sufferings.

robbery for burnt offering - rather, from a different Hebrew root, the spoil of iniquity [Horsley]. So in Job 5:6. Hating, as I do, the rapine, combined with iniquity, perpetrated on My people by their enemies, I will vindicate Israel.

direct ... work in truth - rather, “I will give them the reward of their work” (compare Isa 40:10, Margin; Isa 49:4, Margin; Isa 62:11, Margin) in faithfulness.
