1 Tawarikh 29:17

29:17 I know, my God, that you examine thoughts ¹⁰  and are pleased with integrity. With pure motives ¹¹  I contribute all this; and now I look with joy as your people who have gathered here contribute to you.

[22:9]  ¹ tn Heb “man of rest.”

[22:9]  ³ sn The name Solomon (שְׁלֹמֹה, shÿlomoh) sounds like (and may be derived from) the Hebrew word for “peace” (שָׁלוֹם, shalom).

[22:9]  ⁴ tn Heb “in his days.”

[22:18]  ⁵ tn The words “he told them” are added in the translation for clarity and for stylistic reasons.

[22:18]  ⁶ tn In the Hebrew text the statement is phrased as a rhetorical question, “Is not the Lord your God with you?” The question anticipates the response, “Of course he is!” Thus in the translation the positive statement “The Lord your God is with you!” has been used.

[22:18]  ⁷ tn Heb “and he gives rest to you all around.”

[22:18]  ⁸ tn Or “earth.”

[22:18]  ⁹ tn Or “earth.”
