23:3 The God of Israel spoke,

the protector ⁵  of Israel spoke to me.

The one who rules fairly among men,

the one who rules in the fear of God,

[6:7]  ¹ tn Heb “and the anger of the Lord burned against Uzzah.”

[6:7]  ² tn Heb “God.”

[6:7]  ³ tc Heb “there.” Since this same term occurs later in the verse it is translated “on the spot” here for stylistic reasons.

[6:7]  ⁴ tc The phrase “his negligence” is absent from the LXX.

[23:3]  ⁵ tn Heb “rock,” used as a metaphor of divine protection.
