¹ tn Heb “and they were mocking them and ridiculing them.”

² tn Heb “and Jeroboam had caused to circle around an ambush to come from behind them.”

³ tn Heb “Judah.”

³ sn These poles were used to carry the ark. The Levites were to carry it with the poles on their shoulders. See Exod 25:13-15; 1 Chr 15:15.

⁴ tn Heb “his words.”

⁵ 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.

⁶ tn Heb “until the anger of the Lord went up against his people until there was no healer.”

⁵ tn Or “army.”

⁶ 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.

⁷ tn Heb “and they snatched away for themselves so that there was no carrying away.”

⁸ tn Heb “and they were three days looting the plunder for it was great.”

⁶ tn Heb “doers of the work.”
