1 Chronicles 22:18

22:18 He told them, ³  “The Lord your God is with you! ⁴  He has made you secure on every side, ⁵  for he handed over to me the inhabitants of the region ⁶  and the region ⁷  is subdued before the Lord and his people.

[14:11]  ¹ tn Heb “by my hand.”

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

[22:18]  ³ tn The words “he told them” are added in the translation for clarity and for stylistic reasons.

[22:18]  ⁴ tn In the Hebrew text the statement is phrased as a rhetorical question, “Is not the Lord your God with you?” The question anticipates the response, “Of course he is!” Thus in the translation the positive statement “The Lord your God is with you!” has been used.

[22:18]  ⁵ tn Heb “and he gives rest to you all around.”

[22:18]  ⁶ tn Or “earth.”

[22:18]  ⁷ tn Or “earth.”
