1 tn Heb “and these are the number of the warriors who were David’s.”
2 tc The marginal reading (Qere) has “officers;” the consonantal text (Kethib) has “the Thirty” (see v. 15).
3 tn Heb “he was wielding his spear against 300, [who were] slain at one time.”
4 tn Traditionally, “Lord of hosts.”
5 tn Heb “and from after sheep.”
7 tn Following the imperative in v. 23b, the prefixed verbal form with vav (ו) conjunctive indicates purpose/result: “so it might become a reality.”
8 tn Heb “so it might be established.”
9 tn Heb “and your name might be great permanently.” Following the imperative in v. 23b, the prefixed verbal form with vav conjunctive indicates purpose/result (parallel to the previous purpose/result clause): “[so]…you might gain lasting fame.”
10 tn Heb “saying.” The words “as people” are supplied in the translation for clarification and for stylistic reasons.
11 tc Heb “the Lord who commands armies [traditionally, the Lord of hosts], the God of Israel, Israel’s God.” The phrases אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל (’elohey yisra’el, “God of Israel”) and אֱלֹהִים לְיִשְׂרָאֵל (’elohim lÿyisra’el, “Israel’s God”) are probably alternative readings that have been conflated in the text.
12 tn Heb “the house of David.”
