The Key Word — תּוֹלַעְתָּ֞ם, tola'atamgenerated
The word תּוֹלַע (tola') refers to a worm, specifically a type that is often associated with decay. It emphasizes the idea of something that is alive yet feeds on death, symbolizing the eternal consequences for those who rebel against God.
In this context, the word signifies the never-ending punishment of the wicked, illustrating a fate that is both physical and spiritual. The use of this term reinforces the severity of their rebellion and the permanence of their consequences.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The verse is structured around a series of clauses, beginning with two verbs: וְיָצְא֣וּ (and they will go out) and וְרָא֔וּ (and they will look). These verbs introduce the actions of the subjects, followed by a prepositional phrase that describes what they will see.
The sentence then elaborates on the nature of the corpses and the fate of the rebels, with multiple clauses detailing the consequences. This structure emphasizes the stark contrast between the actions of the faithful and the fate of the wicked.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates תּוֹלַע as αὐτῶν (their), which shifts the focus slightly from the worm itself to the possession of the worm by the rebels. This choice highlights the personal nature of their punishment.
The Greek word κῶλα for פֶּגֶר (peger) reflects a similar emphasis on the dead bodies, maintaining the imagery of decay and judgment.

Charles John Ellicott1819–1905Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(24) And they shall go forth . . .—As at the close of Isaiah 48, 57, each ending a great section of the volume, so here, the vision of restoration and blessedness is balanced by that of the righteous condemnation of the wicked. The outward imagery is suggested, as in Joe 3:12; Zechariah 14:12, by that of the great battle of the Lord (Isaiah 66:15-16). Those who are slain in that battle are thought of as filling the valleys round about Jerusalem, especially the valley of Jehoshaphat (“Jehovah judges “), devoured by worms, or given to the flames. Taken strictly, therefore, the words do not speak of the punishment of the souls of men after death, but of the defeat and destruction upon earth of…

AdamClarkeAdam Clarke's Commentary on the BibleVerse 24. For their worm shall not die] These words of the prophet are applied by our blessed Saviour, Mr 9:44, to express the everlasting punishment of the wicked in Gehenna, or in hell. Gehenna, or the valley of Hinnom, was very near to Jerusalem to the south-east: it was the place where the idolatrous Jews celebrated that horrible rite of making their children pass through the fire, that is, of burning them in sacrifice to Moloch. To put a stop to this abominable practice, Josiah defiled, or desecrated, the place, by filling it with human bones, 2Kg 23:10; 2Kg 23:14; and probably it was the custom afterwards to throw out the carcasses of animals there, when it also became the common…

Strictly literal
And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorrence unto all flesh.
And they have gone forth, And looked on the carcases of the men Who are transgressing against me, For their worm dieth not, And their fire is not quenched, And they have been an abhorrence to all flesh!

From the Latin
And they shall go out, and see the carcasses of the men that have transgressed against me: their worm shall not die, and their fire shall not be quenched: and they shall be a loathsome sight to all flesh.
Simplified
They will go out and see the dead bodies of those who rebelled against me. The worms that eat them won't die, the fire that burns them won't go out, and everyone who sees them will be horrified.
And they will go out to see the dead bodies of the men who have done evil against me: for their worm will ever be living, and their fire will never be put out, and they will be a thing of fear to all flesh.

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran
The Masoretic Text of Isaiah 66:24 describes a scene where the corpses of rebellious men are seen, emphasizing that their worm will never die and their fire will never be quenched, serving as a horror to all mankind. The Septuagint aligns closely with the Masoretic Text, matching 16 of the 17 words, although it presents them in a different order and structure. The Dead Sea Scrolls, including 1Qisaa and 4Q56, also agree with the Masoretic Text, preserving the core message and wording with minor variations, while 1Q8 and 4Q57 contain more restored words, but still reflect the same ideas. Overall, there is a strong agreement among these ancient witnesses regarding the content and themes of this verse.

look:
(1) The uses of the simple verb in English Versions of the Bible are nearly all good modern English. In Isa 5:2, however, "He looked that it should bring forth grapes"--"look" is used in the sense of "expect." Compare the King James Version of Sirach 20:14; Ac 28:6, "They looked when he should have swollen" (the Revised Version (British and American) "They expected that he would have swollen"). In 1 Macc 4:54, the King James Version has inserted "look" (omitted in the Revised Version (British and American)) as a simple interjection, without a corresponding word in the Greek
(2) "Look upon" means "fix one's attention on," and is often so used in English Versions of the Bible without further significance (Ec 2:11;

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
OF, preposition ov. [Gr.]
1. From or out of; proceeding from, as the cause, source, means, author or agent bestowing.

Hence of is the sign of the genitive case, the case that denotes production; as the son of man, the son proceeding from man, produced from man. This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man. 'Part of these were slain; ' that is, a number separate, for part denotes a division; the sense then is, a number from or out of the whole were slain. So also, 'some of these were slain; ' that is…

pe'-p'-l: In English Versions of the Bible represents something over a dozen Hebrew and Greek words. Of these, in the Old Testament, `am, is overwhelmingly the most common (about 2,000 times), with le'om, and goy, next in order; but the various Hebrew words are used with very little or no difference in force (e.g. Pr 14:28; but, on the other hand, in Ps 44 contrast verses 12 and 14). Of the changes introduced by the Revised Version (British and American) the only one of significance (cited explicitly in the Preface to the English Revised Version) is the frequent use of the plural "peoples" (strangely avoided in the King James Version except Re 10:11; 17:15), where other nations than Israel are in question. So, for instance, in Ps…
