1 Chronicles 11:22

[11:14]  ¹ tn Heb “delivered it.”

[11:14]  ² tn Heb “and the Lord delivered [with] a great deliverance.”

[21:6]  ³ tn Heb “he”; the proper name (“Joab”) has been substituted for the pronoun here for stylistic reasons; the proper name occurs at the end of the verse in the Hebrew text, where it has been replaced by the pronoun (“him”) in the translation.

[16:1]  ⁵ tn Or “tokens of peace”; NIV “fellowship offerings.”

[11:22]  ⁷ tc Heb “the two of Ariel, Moab.” The precise meaning of אֲרִיאֵל (’ari’el) is uncertain; some read “warrior.” The present translation assumes that the word is a proper name and that בְּנֵי (bÿney, “sons of”) has accidentally dropped from the text by homoioarcton (note the preceding שְׁנֵי, shÿney).
