Isaiah 33:2
Verse 2. Be thou their arm every morning-"Be thou our strength every morning"] For zeroam, their arm, the Syriac, Chaldee, and Vulgate read zeroenu, our arm, in the first person of the pronoun, not the third: the edition of Felix Pratensis has zerootheynu in the margin. The prophet is here praying against the enemies of God's people; and yet this part of the prayer seems to be in their behalf: but from the above authorities it appears that OUR arm is the true reading, though I do not find it confirmed by any of Kennicott's, De Rossi's, or my own MSS. My old MS. Bible has,-Be thou oure arm in erly.
