2 Raja-raja 17:6

2 Raja-raja 24:4

24:4 Because he killed innocent people and stained Jerusalem with their blood, the Lord was unwilling to forgive them. ⁶ 

[9:13]  ¹ tn Heb “his”; the referent (Jehu) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[9:13]  ² tn Heb “and they hurried and took, each one his garment, and they placed [them] beneath him on the bone [?] of the steps.” The precise nuance of גֶרֶם (gerem), “bone,” is unclear. Some suggest the nuance “bare” here; it may be a technical architectural term in this context.

[9:13]  ³ tn Heb “they blew the trumpet.” This has been translated as a passive to avoid the implication that the same ones who shouted had all blown trumpets.

[9:13]  ⁴ tn Or “has become.”

[17:6]  ⁵ tn The Hebrew text has simply “Israel” as the object of the verb.

[24:4]  ⁶ tn Heb “and also the blood of the innocent which he shed, and he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood, and the Lord was not willing to forgive.”
