[5:21]  ¹ tn Heb “their”; the referent (the Hagrites) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[9:19]  ² tn Heb “and his brothers belonging to the house of his father, the Korachites, to the work of the task, guardians of the threshold of the tent.”

[9:19]  ³ tn Heb “and their fathers to the camp of the Lord, guardians of the entrance.” Here “fathers” is used in a more general sense of “forefathers” or “ancestors” and is not limited specifically to their fathers only.

[9:33]  ⁴ tn Heb “were in rooms.” The words “at the sanctuary” are supplied in the translation for clarification.

[10:4]  ⁵ tn Heb “so these uncircumcised ones might not come and abuse me.”

[10:7]  ⁶ tn Heb “they”; the referent (the army) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[12:38]  ⁷ tc Heb “all these [were] men of war, helpers of the battle line.” The present translation assumes an emendation of עֹדְרֵי (’odÿrey, “helpers of”) to עֹרְכֵי, (’orÿkhey, “prepared for”).

[12:38]  ⁸ tn Heb “with a complete heart they came to Hebron to make David king over all Israel.”

[12:38]  ⁹ tn Heb “and also all the rest of Israel [was of] one mind to make David king.”

[13:2]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “If to you [it is] good and from the Lord our God.”

[13:2]  ¹¹ tn Heb “let us spread and let us send.” The words “the word” are supplied in the translation for clarification.

[13:2]  ¹² tn Heb “in the cities of their pasturelands.”

[17:6]  ¹³ tn In the Hebrew text the statement is phrased as a rhetorical question (“Did I say?”) meaning “I did not say.”

[17:6]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “to one of the judges of Israel whom I commanded to shepherd my people.”

[20:1]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “and it was at the time of the turning of the year, at the time of the going out of kings.”

[21:3]  ¹⁶ tn Or “people.”

[21:3]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “Why should it become guilt for Israel?” David’s decision betrays an underlying trust in his own strength rather than in divine provision. See also 1 Chr 27:23-24.

[21:15]  ¹⁸ tn The parallel text of 2 Sam 24:15 reports that God sent a plague, while 24:16-17 attributes this to the instrumentality of an angel.

[21:15]  ¹⁹ tn Or “destroy.”

[21:15]  ²⁰ tn Heb “while he was destroying.”

[21:15]  ²¹ tn Or “saw.”

[21:15]  ²² tn Or “was grieved because of.”

[21:15]  ²³ tn Heb “concerning the calamity.”

[21:15]  ²⁴ tn For this nuance of the Hebrew word רַב (rav), see BDB 913 s.v. 1.f.

[21:15]  ²⁵ tn Heb “Now, drop your hand.”

[21:15]  ²⁶ tn In the parallel text in 2 Sam 24:16 this individual is called אֲרַוְנָא (’aravna’, “Aravna”), traditionally “Araunah.” The form of the name found here also occurs in vv. 18-28.

[21:17]  ²⁷ tn “and doing evil I did evil.” The infinitive absolute precedes the finite form of the verb for emphasis.

[21:17]  ²⁸ tn Heb “let your hand be on me and on the house of my father.”

[21:17]  ²⁹ tn Heb “but on your people not for a plague.”

[22:18]  ³⁰ tn The words “he told them” are added in the translation for clarity and for stylistic reasons.

[22:18]  ³¹ 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]  ³² tn Heb “and he gives rest to you all around.”

[22:18]  ³³ tn Or “earth.”

[22:18]  ³⁴ tn Or “earth.”

[29:14]  ³⁵ tn Heb “that we should retain strength to contribute like this.”
