⁵ tn Heb “he was wielding his spear against 300, [who were] slain at one time.”

⁵ tn Heb “the place of the threshing floor.”

⁶ tn Following the imperative, the prefixed verbal form with vav (ו) conjunctive here indicates the immediate purpose/result: “so I can build.”

⁷ tn Heb “For full silver sell to me.”

⁸ tn Following the imperative and first person prefixed verbal form with vav (ו) conjunctive, this third person prefixed verbal form with vav conjunctive introduces the ultimate purpose/result: “so the plague may be removed.” Another option is subordinate this form to the preceding imperative, but the latter may be taken as a parenthetical expansion of the initial request.
