Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(3) Let not your hearts faint, fear not.--In these words Isaiah strengthened Ahaz (Deuteronomy 7:4): "fear not, neither be faint-hearted."Tremble.--As in the Margin, "make haste." (Comp. 2Samuel 4:4, and 2Kings 7:15.)Be ye terrified.--A strong word. The idea is, "do not even be unnerved, much less alarmed, at the sight of them."Parallel Commentaries ...Hebrewsayingוְאָמַ֤ר (wə·’ā·mar)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Conjunctive perfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 559: To utter, sayto them,אֲלֵהֶם֙ (’ă·lê·hem)Preposition | third person masculine pluralStrong's 413: Near, with, among, to“Hear,שְׁמַ֣ע (šə·ma‘)Verb - Qal - Imperative - masculine singularStrong's 8085: To hear intelligentlyO Israel,יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל (yiś·rā·’êl)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 3478: Israel -- 'God strives', another name of Jacob and his desctodayהַיּ֛וֹם (hay·yō·wm)Article | Noun - masculine singularStrong's 3117: A dayyouאַתֶּ֨ם (’at·tem)Pronoun - second person masculine pluralStrong's 859: Thou and thee, ye and youare goingקְרֵבִ֥ים (qə·rê·ḇîm)Adjective - masculine pluralStrong's 7131: Approachinginto battleלַמִּלְחָמָ֖ה (lam·mil·ḥā·māh)Preposition-l, Article | Noun - feminine singularStrong's 4421: A battle, warwithעַל־ (‘al-)PrepositionStrong's 5921: Above, over, upon, againstyour enemies.אֹיְבֵיכֶ֑ם (’ō·yə·ḇê·ḵem)Verb - Qal - Participle - masculine plural construct | second person masculine pluralStrong's 341: Hating, an adversaryDo notאַל־ (’al-)AdverbStrong's 408: Notbe faintheartedיֵרַ֣ךְ (yê·raḵ)Verb - Qal - Imperfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 7401: To be tender, weak or soft[or]אַל־ (’al-)AdverbStrong's 408: Notbe afraid;תִּֽירְא֧וּ (tî·rə·’ū)Verb - Qal - Imperfect - second person masculine pluralStrong's 3372: To fear, to revere, caus, to frightendo notוְאַֽל־ (wə·’al-)Conjunctive waw | AdverbStrong's 408: Notbe alarmedתַּחְפְּז֛וּ (taḥ·pə·zū)Verb - Qal - Imperfect - second person masculine pluralStrong's 2648: To start up suddenly, to hasten away, to fearor terrifiedתַּֽעַרְצ֖וּ (ta·‘ar·ṣū)Verb - Qal - Imperfect - second person masculine pluralStrong's 6206: To cause to tremble, tremblebecause of them.מִפְּנֵיהֶֽם׃ (mip·pə·nê·hem)Preposition-m | Noun - masculine plural construct | third person masculine pluralStrong's 6440: The faceJump to PreviousAffrighted Afraid Alarmed Approach Approaching Battle Draw Dread Enemies Hear Heart Hearts Israel Nigh Scared Terrified Today Tremble
