Charles John Ellicott1819–1905Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(3) I have commanded my sanctified ones . . .—The word is applied even to the fierce tribes of the future destroyers, as being appointed, or consecrated, by Jehovah for that special work. The thought and the words (there translated “prepare”) appear in Jeremiah 6:4; Jeremiah 22:7; Jeremiah 51:27. So in the later prophecies Cyrus appears as “the anointed” of the Lord (Isaiah 45:1). Even them that rejoice in my highness.—In Zephaniah 3:11 the same phrase occurs in a bad sense. Here, apparently, it denotes the proud consciousness of the invaders that they are doing God’s work.

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran
The Masoretic Text reads: 'I have commanded My sanctified ones; I have even summoned My warriors to execute My wrath and exult in My triumph.' The Septuagint largely agrees with the Masoretic Text, matching 8 of the 9 words, although its word order and articles differ as it presents a unique sentence structure. The Dead Sea Scrolls also support the Masoretic Text, with 1Qisaa showing 9 words on the leather that closely align with it. Other scrolls, like 1Q8 and 4Q55, contain partial restorations but maintain the same essential wording, indicating a strong consistency across these ancient witnesses. However, 4Q59 has no text on this fragment, and 4Q56 contains only 7 words, with the rest supplied by an editor, suggesting some variations in preservation but overall agreement with the Masoretic Text's message.

8 of the 9 words are matched. This is the word-by-word correspondence, not the Septuagint's own sentence — its word order and its articles are its own.
אני צויתי למקדש׳י גמ קראתי גבור׳י לאפ׳י עליזי גאות׳י
9 words on the leather.
[אני] [צויתי] [למקדש׳י] [גם] קראתי גבר׳י לאפ׳י עליזי גאות׳י

2 words on the leather — 7 supplied entire by an editor.
[אני] [צויתי] [למקדש׳י] [גם] [קראתי] [גבור׳י] [לאפ׳י] [עליזי] [גאות׳י]
nothing on the leather here — 9 supplied entire by an editor.
[למקדש׳י] [גם] [קראתי] [גבור׳י] [לאפ׳י] עליזי גאות׳י
7 words of the verse are on this fragment — 5 supplied entire by an editor.
Four traditions, not one. “On the leather” means the letters physically survive on the scroll, as against letters an editor has supplied to fill a hole in it — a restoration is a scholar’s reading, not a reading of the manuscript. Words in [square brackets] are supplied; the notes count them apart from what survives.
The map of this verse — what each word keeps company with
This is a map of two things, both counted rather than judged. Company kept: which words stand within three words of each of these, anywhere in the Hebrew Bible — the thicker the line, the more often the pair meet compared with chance.
