1 Kings 13:4

13:4 When the king heard what the prophet ¹  cried out against the altar in Bethel, Jeroboam, standing at the altar, extended his hand ²  and ordered, ³  “Seize him!” The hand he had extended shriveled up ⁴  and he could not pull it back.

1 Kings 12:30

12:30 This caused Israel to sin; ⁵  the people went to Bethel and Dan to worship the calves. ⁶ 

[13:4]  ¹ tn Heb “the man of God.”

[13:4]  ² tn Heb “Jeroboam extended his hand from the altar.”

[13:4]  ³ tn Heb “saying.”

[13:4]  ⁴ tn Heb “dried up” or “withered.” TEV and NLT interpret this as “became paralyzed.”

[12:30]  ⁵ tn Heb “and this thing became a sin.”

[12:30]  ⁶ tc The MT reads “and the people went before the one to Dan.” It is likely that some words have been accidentally omitted and that the text originally said, “and the people went before the one at Bethel and before the one at Dan.”
