2 Kings 11:19

11:19 He took the officers of the units of hundreds, the Carians, the royal bodyguard, and all the people of land, and together they led the king down from the Lord’s temple. They entered the royal palace through the Gate of the Royal Bodyguard, ¹  and the king ²  sat down on the royal throne.

Isaiah 23:15

23:15 At that time ³  Tyre will be forgotten for seventy years, ⁴  the typical life span of a king. ⁵  At the end of seventy years Tyre will try to attract attention again, like the prostitute in the popular song: ⁶ 

Daniel 7:17

7:17 ‘These large beasts, which are four in number, represent four kings who will arise from the earth.

Daniel 7:23

7:23 “This is what he told me: ⁷ 

‘The fourth beast means that there will be a fourth kingdom on earth

that will differ from all the other kingdoms.

It will devour all the earth

and will trample and crush it.

¹ tn Heb “the Gate of the Runners of the House of the King.”

² tn Heb “he”; the referent (the king) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

³ tn Or “in that day” (KJV). The verb that introduces this verse serves as a discourse particle and is untranslated; see note on “in the future” in 2:2.

⁴ sn The number seventy is probably used in a stereotypical, nonliteral sense here to indicate a long period of time that satisfies completely the demands of God’s judgment.

⁵ tn Heb “like the days of a king.”

⁶ tn Heb “At the end of seventy years it will be for Tyre like the song of the prostitute.”

⁷ tn Aram “thus he said.”
