1 Samuel 2:32

2:32 You will see trouble in my dwelling place! ¹  Israel will experience blessings, ²  but there will not be an old man in your ³  house for all time. ⁴ 

Mazmur 78:61

78:61 He allowed the symbol of his strong presence to be captured; ⁵ 

he gave the symbol of his splendor ⁶  into the hand of the enemy. ⁷ 

[2:32]  ¹ tn Heb “you will see [the] trouble of [the] dwelling place.” Since God’s dwelling place/sanctuary is in view, the pronoun is supplied in the translation (see v. 29).

[2:32]  ² tn Heb “in all which he does good with Israel.”

[2:32]  ³ tc The LXX and a Qumran manuscript have the first person pronoun “my” here.

[2:32]  ⁴ tn Heb “all the days.”

[78:61]  ⁵ tn Heb “and he gave to captivity his strength.” The expression “his strength” refers metonymically to the ark of the covenant, which was housed in the tabernacle at Shiloh.

[78:61]  ⁶ tn Heb “and his splendor into the hand of an enemy.” The expression “his splendor” also refers metonymically to the ark of the covenant.

[78:61]  ⁷ sn Verses 60-61 refer to the Philistines’ capture of the ark in the days of Eli (1 Sam 4:1-11).
