[9:4]  ¹ tn Heb “As for you, if you walk before me, as David your father walked, in integrity of heart and in uprightness, by doing all which I commanded you, [and] you keep my rules and my regulations.” Verse 4 is actually a lengthy protasis (“if” section) of a conditional sentence, the apodosis (“then” section) of which appears in v. 5.

[11:4]  ² tn Heb “bent his heart after.”

[11:4]  ³ tn Heb “his heart was not complete with the Lord his God, like the heart of David his father.”

[15:3]  ⁴ tn Heb “his heart was not complete with the Lord his God, like the heart of David his father.”

[15:14]  ⁵ tn Heb “yet the heart of Asa was complete with the Lord all his days.”

[22:43]  ⁷ sn Beginning with 22:43b, the verse numbers through 22:53 in the English Bible differ from the verse numbers in the Hebrew text (BHS), because 22:43b in the English Bible = 22:44 in the Hebrew text. The remaining verses in the chapter differ by one, with 22:44-53 ET = 22:45-54 HT.
