16:7 That day David first gave to Asaph and his colleagues this song of thanks to the Lord:
Then they designated Solomon, David’s son, as king a second time; 4 before the Lord they anointed him as ruler and Zadok as priest.
11:22 Benaiah son of Jehoiada was a brave warrior from Kabzeel who performed great exploits. He struck down the two sons of Ariel of Moab; 5 he also went down and killed a lion inside a cistern on a snowy day.
1 tn Heb “for at the time of day in a day they were coming to David to help him until [there was] a great camp like the camp of God.” The term אֱלֹהִים (’elohim, “God”) is probably used idiomatically here to indicate the superlative.

2 tn Heb “with great joy.”
