1 Chronicles 17:21

17:21 And who is like your people, Israel, a unique nation ⁴  in the earth? Their God ⁵  went to claim ⁶  a nation for himself! You made a name for yourself by doing great and awesome deeds ⁷  when you drove out ⁸  nations before your people whom you had delivered from the Egyptian empire and its gods. ⁹ 

[13:6]  ¹ tn Heb “the ark of God the Lord who sits [between] the cherubim which is called [by his] name.”

[17:6]  ² tn In the Hebrew text the statement is phrased as a rhetorical question (“Did I say?”) meaning “I did not say.”

[17:6]  ³ tn Heb “to one of the judges of Israel whom I commanded to shepherd my people.”

[17:21]  ³ tn Heb “a nation, one.”

[17:21]  ⁴ tn Heb “whose God,” or “because God.” In the Hebrew text this clause is subordinated to what precedes. The clauses are separated in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[17:21]  ⁵ tn Heb “redeem” or “deliver.”

[17:21]  ⁶ tn Heb “to make for yourself a name [with] great and awesome [deeds].”

[17:21]  ⁷ tn Heb “to drive out.”

[17:21]  ⁸ tn Heb “from Egypt, nations.” The parallel text in 2 Sam 7:23 reads “from Egypt, nations and its gods.”
