1 Raja-raja 20:9

20:9 So he said to the messengers of Ben Hadad, “Say this to my master, the king, ‘I will give you everything you demanded at first from your servant, but I am unable to agree to this latest demand.’” ⁸  So the messengers went back and gave their report.

[2:3]  ¹ tn Heb “keep the charge of the Lord your God.”

[2:3]  ² tn Heb “by walking in his ways.”

[2:3]  ³ tn Or “keeping.”

[2:3]  ⁴ tn Heb “then you will cause to succeed all which you do and all which you turn there.”

[9:7]  ⁵ tn Heb “I will cut off Israel from upon the surface of the land.”

[9:7]  ⁶ tn Heb “and the temple which I consecrated for my name I will send away from before my face.”

[9:7]  sn Instead of “I will send away,” the parallel text in 2 Chr 7:20 has “I will throw away.” The two verbs sound very similar in Hebrew, so the discrepancy is likely due to an oral transmissional error.

[9:7]  ⁷ tn Heb “will become a proverb and a taunt,” that is, a proverbial example of destruction and an object of reproach.

[20:9]  ⁸ tn Heb “all which you sent to your servant in the beginning I will do, but this thing I am unable to do.”
