NETBible

Furthermore, they do not observe the king’s laws. It is not appropriate for the king to provide a haven for them. 3 

NET Notes

tn Heb “one people.” Note the subtle absence at this point of a specific mention of the Jewish people by name.

tn Heb “peoples” (so NASB, NIV); NAB “nations”

tn Heb “to cause them to rest”; NASB “to let them remain”; NAB, NIV, NRSV “to tolerate them.”
