2 Chronicles 21:18

21:18 After all this happened, the Lord afflicted him with an incurable intestinal disease. ¹ 

2 Chronicles 36:16

36:16 But they mocked God’s messengers, despised his warnings, ²  and ridiculed his prophets. ³  Finally the Lord got very angry at his people and there was no one who could prevent his judgment. ⁴ 

2 Chronicles 14:13

14:13 and Asa and his army chased them as far as Gerar. The Cushites were wiped out; ⁵  they were shattered before the Lord and his army. The men of Judah ⁶  carried off a huge amount of plunder.

2 Chronicles 20:25

20:25 Jehoshaphat and his men ⁷  went to gather the plunder; they found a huge amount of supplies, clothing ⁸  and valuable items. They carried away everything they could. ⁹  There was so much plunder, it took them three days to haul it off. ¹⁰ 

2 Chronicles 14:11

14:11 Asa prayed ¹¹  to the Lord his God: “O Lord, there is no one but you who can help the weak when they are vastly outnumbered. ¹²  Help us, O Lord our God, for we rely on you and have marched on your behalf against this huge army. ¹³  O Lord our God, don’t let men prevail against you!” ¹⁴ 

¹ tn Heb “in his intestines with an illness [for which] there was no healer.”

² tn Heb “his words.”

³ tn All three verbal forms (“mocked,” “despised,” and “ridiculed”) are active participles in the Hebrew text, indicating continual or repeated action. They made a habit of rejecting God’s prophetic messengers.

⁴ tn Heb “until the anger of the Lord went up against his people until there was no healer.”

³ tn Heb “and there fell from the Cushites so that there was not to them preservation of life.”

⁴ tn Heb “they”; the referent (the men of Judah) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

⁴ tn Or “army.”

⁵ tc The MT reads פְגָרִים (fÿgarim, “corpses”), but this seems odd among a list of plunder. A few medieval Hebrew mss and the Vulgate read בְגָדִים (vÿgadim, “clothing”), which fits the context much better.

⁶ tn Heb “and they snatched away for themselves so that there was no carrying away.”

⁷ tn Heb “and they were three days looting the plunder for it was great.”

⁵ tn Heb “called out.”

⁶ tn Heb “there is not with you to help between many with regard to [the one] without strength.”

⁷ tn Heb “and in your name we have come against this multitude.”

⁸ tn Heb “let not man retain [strength] with you.”
