[7:17]  ¹ tn See the note on “Zabdi” in 1 Chr 7:1.

[7:17]  ² tn Heb “and he selected Zabdi.” The Lord is the apparent subject. The LXX supports reading a passive (Niphal) form here, as does the immediate context.

[7:8]  ³ tn Heb “turned [the] back.”

[7:16]  ⁴ tn Heb “by tribes.”

[21:45]  ⁵ tn Heb “the house of Israel.” Cf. NCV “the Israelites”; TEV “the people of Israel”; CEV, NLT “Israel.”

[21:45]  ⁶ tn Heb “not a word from all the good word which the Lord spoke to the house of Israel fell; the whole came to pass.”

[7:18]  ⁷ tn Heb “his”; the referent (Zabdi) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[7:18]  ⁸ tn Heb “by men.”

[7:22]  ⁹ tn Heb “Look, [it was] hidden in his tent, and the silver was beneath it.”

[9:16]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “At the end of three days, after they made the treaty with them, they heard that they were neighbors to them and in their midst they were living.”

[9:24]  ¹¹ tn Heb “your servants.”

[9:24]  ¹² tn Or “we were very afraid.”

[7:5]  ¹³ 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]  ¹⁴ sn The precise geographical location of the Israelite defeat at this “steep slope” is uncertain.

[7:5]  ¹⁵ tn Or “army’s.”

[7:5]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “and the heart of the people melted and became water.”

[7:15]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “with what was set apart [to the Lord].”

[7:15]  ¹⁸ tn Heb “burned with fire.”

[9:11]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “your servants.”

[19:47]  ²⁰ tn Heb “the territory of the sons of Dan went out from them.”

[19:47]  ²¹ tn Heb “Leshem.” The pronoun (“it”) has replaced the name “Leshem” in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[19:47]  ²² tn Heb “according to the name of their father.”

[20:4]  ²³ tn Heb “he”; the referent (the one who accidentally kills another, cf. v. 2) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[20:4]  ²⁴ tn Heb “and speak into the ears of the elders of that city his words.”

[20:4]  ²⁵ tn Heb “and they should gather him into the city to themselves, give to him a place, and he will live with them.”

[22:30]  ²⁶ tn Heb “the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the sons of Manasseh.”
