1 Samuel 2:15

2:15 Even before they burned the fat, the priest’s attendant would come and say to the person who was making the sacrifice, “Hand over some meat for the priest to roast! He won’t take boiled meat from you, but only raw.” ¹ 

1 Samuel 25:8

25:8 Ask your own servants; they can tell you! May my servants find favor in your sight, for we have come ²  at the time of a holiday. Please provide us – your servants ³  and your son David – with whatever you can spare.” ⁴ 

¹ tn Heb “living.”

² tc The translation follows many medieval Hebrew mss in reading בָּאנוּ (ba’nu, “we have come”) rather than the MT’s בָּנוּ (banu, “we have built”).

³ tn This refers to the ten servants sent by David.

⁴ tn Heb “whatever your hand will find.”
