[3:10]  ¹ tn Heb “said.”

[5:4]  ² tn Heb “All the people who went out from Egypt, the males, all the men of war, died in the desert in the way when they went out from Egypt.”

[7:5]  ³ tn The meaning and correct translation of the Hebrew word שְׁבָרִים (shÿvarim) is uncertain. The translation “fissures” is based on usage of the plural form of the noun in Ps 60:4 HT (60:2 ET), where it appears to refer to cracks in the earth caused by an earthquake. Perhaps deep ravines or gorges are in view, or the word is a proper noun (“all the way to Shebarim”).

[7:5]  ⁴ sn The precise geographical location of the Israelite defeat at this “steep slope” is uncertain.

[7:5]  ⁵ tn Or “army’s.”

[7:5]  ⁶ tn Heb “and the heart of the people melted and became water.”

[10:10]  ⁷ tn Or “caused to panic.”

[10:10]  ⁸ tn Heb “he.” The referent is probably Israel (mentioned at the end of the previous sentence in the verse; cf. NIV, NRSV), but it is also possible that the Lord should be understood as the referent (cf. NASB “and He slew them with a great slaughter at Gibeon”), or even Joshua (cf. NEB “and Joshua defeated them utterly in Gibeon”).

[10:10]  ⁹ tn Heb “struck them down with a great striking down.”

[10:10]  ¹⁰ tn Or “ascent.”

[22:25]  ¹¹ tn Heb “You have no portion in the Lord.”

[22:25]  ¹² tn Heb “fearing.”

[24:17]  ¹³ tn Heb “of the house of slavery.”

[24:17]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “for the Lord our God, he is the one who brought up us and our fathers from the land of Egypt, from the house of slaves.”

[24:17]  ¹⁵ tn Or “great signs.”

[24:17]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “and he guarded us in all the way in which we walked and among all the peoples through whose midst we passed.”
