Isaiah 36:9

Hebrew	וְאֵ֣יךְ תָּשִׁ֗יב אֵ֠תplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigאֵת hebrew The Hebrew אֵת word does not have a corresponding word in English. In Hebrew, it is a marker of the accusative, i.e. the word following it is the object of the sentence. For example, in Genesis 1:1 the word is preceded by בָּרָ֣א אֱלֹהִ֑ים ( פְּנֵ֨י פַחַ֥ת אַחַ֛ד עַבְדֵ֥י אֲדֹנִ֖י הַקְטַנִּ֑ים וַתִּבְטַ֤ח לְךָ֙ עַל מִצְרַ֔יִם לְרֶ֖כֶב וּלְפָרָשִֽׁים
ESV	How then can you repulse a single captain among the least of my master's servants, when you trust in Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?
NIV	How then can you repulse one officer of the least of my master's officials, even though you are depending on Egypt for chariots and horsemen?
NLT	With your tiny army, how can you think of challenging even the weakest contingent of my master's troops, even with the help of Egypt's chariots and charioteers?
