ah! alas! interjection of grief or dismay
An onomatopoetic interjection expressing grief, dismay, or mourning. Both occurrences appear in Ezekiel's prophetic oracles. The word captures an emotional outburst, likely a cry or wail. BDB notes that in Ezekiel 18:10 this may be a textual error (dittography from the following word), but in Ezekiel 21:15 (English 21:10) it represents a genuine exclamation, though the Septuagint reading differs, suggesting some textual uncertainty.
Sentidos
1. sense 1 — Cross-linguistic evidence shows translators recognized the emotional force: English renders it 'Alas,' Spanish 'Ay,' French preserves the Hebrew form in brackets, while German unexpectedly has 'Bruder' (brother), likely reflecting textual confusion with the more common meaning of 'ach.' The interjection fits Ezekiel's dramatic prophetic style, where verbal outbursts punctuate oracles of judgment. 2×
