1 Chronicles 14:11

14:11 So they marched against Baal Perazim and David defeated them there. David said, “Using me as his instrument, ¹  God has burst out against my enemies like water bursts out.” So that place is called Baal Perazim. ² 

1 Chronicles 21:22

21:22 David said to Ornan, “Sell me the threshing floor ³  so I can build ⁴  on it an altar for the Lord – I’ll pay top price ⁵  – so that the plague may be removed ⁶  from the people.”

[14:11]  ¹ tn Heb “by my hand.”

[14:11]  ² sn The name Baal Perazim means “Lord of outbursts” in Hebrew.

[21:22]  ³ tn Heb “the place of the threshing floor.”

[21:22]  ⁴ tn Following the imperative, the prefixed verbal form with vav (ו) conjunctive here indicates the immediate purpose/result: “so I can build.”

[21:22]  ⁵ tn Heb “For full silver sell to me.”

[21:22]  ⁶ tn Following the imperative and first person prefixed verbal form with vav (ו) conjunctive, this third person prefixed verbal form with vav conjunctive introduces the ultimate purpose/result: “so the plague may be removed.” Another option is subordinate this form to the preceding imperative, but the latter may be taken as a parenthetical expansion of the initial request.
