translationNotes

  • Isaiah continues speaking to the people of Israel.
  • For your hands are stained with blood and your fingers with sin - Here "hands" and "fingers" refers to their actions. This means they are guilty of doing violent and sinful things. (See: :en:ta:vol2:translate:figs_metonymy)
  • they conceive trouble and give birth to sin - This emphasizes how carefully they plan to do sinful things. Here "they" still refers to the people of Israel. (See: :en:ta:vol1:translate:figs_metaphor)
