[5:25]  ¹ tn Heb “fathers.”

[5:25]  ² tn Heb “prostituted themselves after.”

[5:25]  ³ tn Heb “the peoples of the land.”

[13:4]  ⁴ tn Heb “all the assembly said to do so.”

[13:4]  ⁵ tn Heb “for right was the word in the eyes of all the people.”

[16:43]  ⁷ tn Heb “to bless his house.” Elsewhere when “house” is the object of “bless,” it refers to a household or family. See, for example, 1 Chr 13:14; 17:27. However, since בֵּית (bet, “house”) refers to a literal house or home earlier in the verse and to David’s palace in 17:1, one might translate here, “David went to pronounce a blessing on [i.e., dedicate] his house [i.e., palace].”

[18:14]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “and he was doing what is just and fair for all his people.”

[19:13]  ¹³ tn Heb “and the Lord, what is good in his eyes, he will do.”

[19:14]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “and the army which was with him.”
