1 Samuel 19:5

19:5 He risked his life ⁵  when he struck down the Philistine and the Lord gave all Israel a great victory. When you saw it, you were happy. So why would you sin against innocent blood by putting David to death for no reason?”

[83:16]  ¹ tn Heb “fill.”

[83:16]  ² tn After the preceding imperative, the prefixed verbal form with prefixed vav (ו) indicates purpose or result (“then they will seek”).

[83:16]  ³ tn Heb “your name,” which stands here for God’s person.

[83:2]  ⁴ tn Heb “lift up [their] head[s].” The phrase “lift up [the] head” here means “to threaten; to be hostile,” as in Judg 8:28.

[19:5]  ⁵ tn Heb “and he put his life into his hand.”
