2 Tawarikh 6:36

6:36 “The time will come when your people ¹  will sin against you (for there is no one who is sinless!) and you will be angry at them and deliver them over to their enemies, who will take them as prisoners to their land, whether far away or close by.

2 Tawarikh 9:8

9:8 May the Lord your God be praised because he favored ²  you by placing you on his throne as the one ruling on his behalf! ³  Because of your God’s love for Israel and his lasting commitment to them, ⁴  he made you king over them so you could make just and right decisions.” ⁵ 

2 Tawarikh 10:16

10:16 When all Israel saw that the king refused to listen to them, the people answered the king, “We have no portion in David – no share in the son of Jesse! ⁶  Return to your homes, O Israel! ⁷  Now, look after your own dynasty, O David!” ⁸  So all Israel returned to their homes. ⁹ 

2 Tawarikh 13:9

13:9 But you banished ¹⁰  the Lord’s priests, Aaron’s descendants, and the Levites, and appointed your own priests just as the surrounding nations do! Anyone who comes to consecrate himself with a young bull or seven rams becomes a priest of these fake gods! ¹¹ 

2 Tawarikh 20:12

20:12 Our God, will you not judge them? For we are powerless against this huge army that attacks us! We don’t know what we should do; we look to you for help.” ¹² 

2 Tawarikh 24:20

24:20 God’s Spirit energized ¹³  Zechariah son of Jehoiada the priest. He stood up before the people and said to them, “This is what God says: ‘Why are you violating the commands of the Lord? You will not be prosperous! Because you have rejected the Lord, he has rejected you!’”

2 Tawarikh 25:16

25:16 While he was speaking, Amaziah ¹⁴  said to him, “Did we appoint you to be a royal counselor? Stop prophesying or else you will be killed!” ¹⁵  So the prophet stopped, but added, “I know that the Lord has decided ¹⁶  to destroy you, because you have done this thing and refused to listen to my advice.”

2 Tawarikh 29:22

29:22 They slaughtered the bulls, and the priests took the blood and splashed it on the altar. Then they slaughtered the rams and splashed the blood on the altar; next they slaughtered the lambs and splashed the blood on the altar.

2 Tawarikh 29:24

29:24 Then the priests slaughtered them. They offered their blood as a sin offering on the altar to make atonement for all Israel, because the king had decreed ¹⁷  that the burnt sacrifice and sin offering were for all Israel.

2 Tawarikh 33:8

33:8 I will not make Israel again leave the land I gave to their ancestors, ¹⁸  provided that they carefully obey all I commanded them, the whole law, the rules and regulations given to Moses.”

2 Tawarikh 34:4

34:4 He ordered the altars of the Baals to be torn down, ¹⁹  and broke the incense altars that were above them. He smashed the Asherah poles, idols and images, crushed them up and sprinkled the dust over the tombs of those who had sacrificed to them.

2 Tawarikh 34:31

34:31 The king stood by his pillar ²⁰  and renewed ²¹  the covenant before the Lord, agreeing to follow ²²  the Lord and to obey his commandments, laws, and rules with all his heart and being, ²³  by carrying out the terms ²⁴  of this covenant recorded on this scroll.

2 Tawarikh 35:12

35:12 They reserved the burnt offerings and the cattle for the family divisions of the people to present to the Lord, as prescribed in the scroll of Moses. ²⁵ 

[6:36]  ¹ tn Heb “they”; the referent (God’s people) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[9:8]  ² tn Or “delighted in.”

[9:8]  ³ tn Heb “as king for the Lord your God.”

[9:8]  ⁴ tn Heb “to make him stand permanently.”

[9:8]  ⁵ tn Heb “to do justice and righteousness.”

[10:16]  ⁶ sn The people’s point seems to be that they have no familial relationship with David that brings them any benefits or places upon them any obligations. They are being treated like outsiders.

[10:16]  ⁷ tn Heb “each one to your tents, Israel.” The word “return” is supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[10:16]  ⁸ tn Heb “Now see your house, David.”

[10:16]  ⁹ tn Heb “went to their tents.”

[13:9]  ¹⁰ tn In the Hebrew text this is phrased as a rhetorical question, “Did you not banish?” The rhetorical question expects the answer, “Of course you did,” the force of which is reflected in the translation “But you banished.”

[13:9]  ¹¹ tn Heb “whoever comes to fill his hand with a bull of a son of cattle, and seven rams, and he is a priest to no-gods.”

[20:12]  ¹² tn Heb “for [or “indeed”] upon you are our eyes.”

[24:20]  ¹³ tn Heb “clothed.”

[25:16]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “he”; the referent (Amaziah) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[25:16]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “Stop yourself! Why should they strike you down?”

[25:16]  ¹⁶ tn The verb יָעַץ (ya’ats, “has decided”) is from the same root as יוֹעֵץ (yo’ets, “counselor”) in v. 16 and עֵצָה (’etsah, “advice”) later in v. 16. The wordplay highlights the appropriate nature of the divine punishment. Amaziah rejected the counsel of God’s prophet; now he would be the victim of God’s “counsel.”

[29:24]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “said.”

[33:8]  ¹⁸ tn Heb “I will not again make the feet of Israel wander from the land which I established for their fathers.”

[34:4]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “and they tore down before him the altars of the Baals.”

[34:31]  ²⁰ tc This assumes an emendation to עַמּוּדוֹ (’ammudo), see 23:13. The MT reads “at his place.”

[34:31]  ²¹ tn Heb “cut,” that is, “made” or “agreed to.”

[34:31]  ²² tn Heb “walk after.”

[34:31]  ²³ tn Or “soul.”

[34:31]  ²⁴ tn Heb “words.”

[35:12]  ²⁵ tn Heb “and they put aside the burnt offering[s] to give them to the divisions of the house of the fathers for the sons of the people to bring near to the Lord as it is written in the scroll of Moses – and the same with the cattle.”
