‏ Isaiah 51:13

13 Why do you forget ^{▼▼tn Heb “and that you forget.”} the Lord, who made you,
who stretched out the sky ^{▼▼tn Or “the heavens” (also in v. 16). The Hebrew term שָׁמַיִם (shamayim) may be translated “heavens” or “sky” depending on the context.}
and founded the earth?
Why do you constantly tremble all day long ^{▼▼tn Heb “and that you tremble constantly all the day.”}
at the anger of the oppressor,
when he makes plans to destroy?
Where is the anger of the oppressor? ^{▼▼tn The question anticipates the answer, “Ready to disappear!” See v. 14.}
