2 Tawarikh 2:4

2:4 Look, I am ready to build a temple to honor ¹  the Lord my God and to dedicate it to him in order to burn fragrant incense before him, to set out the bread that is regularly displayed, ²  and to offer burnt sacrifices each morning and evening, and on Sabbaths, new moon festivals, and at other times appointed by the Lord our God. This is something Israel must do on a permanent basis. ³ 

2 Tawarikh 6:33

6:33 Then listen from your heavenly dwelling place and answer all the prayers of the foreigners. ⁴  Then all the nations of the earth will acknowledge your reputation, ⁵  obey ⁶  you like your people Israel do, and recognize that this temple I built belongs to you. ⁷ 

2 Tawarikh 12:13

12:13 King Rehoboam solidified his rule in Jerusalem; ⁸  he ⁹  was forty-one years old when he became king and he ruled for seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city the Lord chose from all the tribes of Israel to be his home. ¹⁰  Rehoboam’s ¹¹  mother was an Ammonite named Naamah.

[2:4]  ¹ tn Heb “for the name of.”

[2:4]  ² tn Heb “and the regular display.”

[2:4]  ³ tn Heb “permanently [is] this upon Israel.”

[6:33]  ⁴ tn Heb “and do all which the foreigner calls to [i.e., “requests of”] you.”

[6:33]  ⁵ tn Heb “name.” See the note on “reputation” in v. 32.

[6:33]  ⁶ tn Heb “fear.”

[6:33]  ⁷ tn Heb “that your name is called over this house which I built.” The Hebrew idiom “call the name over” indicates ownership. See 2 Sam 12:28.

[12:13]  ⁸ tn Heb “and the king, Rehoboam, strengthened himself in Jerusalem and ruled.”

[12:13]  ⁹ tn Heb “Rehoboam.” The recurrence of the proper name here is redundant in terms of contemporary English style, so the pronoun has been used in the translation instead.

[12:13]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “the city where the Lord chose to place his name from all the tribes of Israel.”

[12:13]  ¹¹ tn Heb “his”; the referent has been specified in the translation for clarity.
