1 Chronicles 16:25

16:25 For the Lord is great and certainly worthy of praise,

he is more awesome than ¹  all gods.

1 Chronicles 10:4

10:4 Saul told his armor bearer, “Draw your sword and stab me with it. Otherwise these uncircumcised people will come and torture me.” ²  But his armor bearer refused to do it, because he was very afraid. So Saul took the sword and fell on it.

1 Chronicles 17:21

17:21 And who is like your people, Israel, a unique nation ³  in the earth? Their God ⁴  went to claim ⁵  a nation for himself! You made a name for yourself by doing great and awesome deeds ⁶  when you drove out ⁷  nations before your people whom you had delivered from the Egyptian empire and its gods. ⁸ 

¹ tn Or “feared above.”

² tn Heb “so these uncircumcised ones might not come and abuse me.”

³ tn Heb “a nation, one.”

⁴ tn Heb “whose God,” or “because God.” In the Hebrew text this clause is subordinated to what precedes. The clauses are separated in the translation for stylistic reasons.

⁵ tn Heb “redeem” or “deliver.”

⁶ tn Heb “to make for yourself a name [with] great and awesome [deeds].”

⁷ tn Heb “to drive out.”

⁸ tn Heb “from Egypt, nations.” The parallel text in 2 Sam 7:23 reads “from Egypt, nations and its gods.”
