| − | Verse 1: "The desolate," Heb. <i>shomamah,</i> means desolate or deserted, usually used of land (cf. Isa. 49:8). Here the sense is that of an "abandoned" wife.

| − | Verse 2: "Enlarge" (the place of thy tent) is in the second person feminine tense because it is addressed to the barren wife introduced in verse 1. The manual labor of tent preparation fell to the women, who were especially skilled at carding, spinning and weaving the goat hair into tent cloth. See Exodus 35:26.

| − | Verse 2: "Curtains," Heb. <i>yeri'ah,</i> from a root what means to quiver, usually translated as curtain(s), here refers to the tent covering.

| − | | + | |
| − | Verse 4: "Confounded" in English usually means to be confused or perplexed. Occasionally, it refers to being ashamed or abashed, which corresponds closer to the Hebrew word used here, which means to be humiliated, ashamed, or dishonored. "Confounded" is still a good translation. However the parallel with "Fear not" assumes a meaning of "humiliated" or "disconcerted," rather than "confused."
