Nehemiah 12:4

12:4 Iddo, Ginnethon, ¹  Abijah,

Nehemiah 12:16

12:16 of Iddo, ²  Zechariah; of Ginnethon, Meshullam;

¹ tc Most Hebrew MSS read “Ginnethoi”; the present translation follows a number of Hebrew MSS and the Vulgate (cf. Neh 12:16 and NIV, NCV, NLT).

² tc The present translation (along with most English versions) reads with the Qere and the Syriac Peshitta לְעִדּוֹא (lÿ’iddo’, “Iddo”) rather than the MT reading לַעֲדָיָא (la’adaya’) which probably arose through graphic confusion. Cf. v. 4.
