  • let them come near and speak; let us come near together to argue a dispute - “then let them come near so they may speak and reason with me” (See: :en:ta:vol2:translate:figs_parallelism)
  • Who stirred up this one from the east? Who calls him in good order to his service? - Yahweh uses questions to emphasize he is in control of all nations. AT: “I am the one who called this powerful ruler from the east and put him in my good service” (See: :en:ta:vol1:translate:figs_rquestion and :en:ta:vol2:translate:figs_parallelism)
  • He hands nations over to him - "I give the nations over to the one from the east"
