1 Chronicles 29:13-15

29:13 Now, our God, we give thanks to you and praise your majestic name!

29:14 “But who am I and who are my people, that we should be in a position to contribute this much? ¹  Indeed, everything comes from you, and we have simply given back to you what is yours. ²  29:15 For we are resident foreigners and nomads in your presence, like all our ancestors; ³  our days are like a shadow on the earth, without security. ⁴ 

[29:14]  ¹ tn Heb “that we should retain strength to contribute like this.”

[29:14]  ² tn Heb “and from you we have given to you.”

[29:15]  ¹ tn Heb “fathers” (also in vv. 18, 20).

[29:15]  ² tn Or perhaps “hope.”
