Isaiah 48:9 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

For my name's sake will I defer mine anger, and for my praise will I refrain for thee, that I cut thee not off. And for my praise "And for the sake of my praise" - I read ולמען תהלתי ulemaan tehillathi. The word למען lemaan, though not absolutely necessary here, for it may be understood as supplied from the preceding member, yet seems to have been removed from hence to Isaiah 48:11; where it is redundant, and where it is not repeated in the Septuagint, Syriac, and a MS. I have therefore omitted it in the latter place, and added it here.
