[13:7]  ¹ tn The word “River” is not in the Hebrew text, but has been supplied in the translation for clarity.

[15:24]  ² tn Heb “the mouth of the Lord.”

[15:24]  ³ tn Heb “and your words.”

[15:24]  ⁴ tn Heb “and I listened to their voice.”

[16:8]  ³ tn Heb “and caused him to pass before.”

[16:8]  ⁴ tn Heb “he” (also in v. 9); the referent (Samuel) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[16:10]  ⁴ tn Heb “caused seven of his sons to pass before Samuel.” This could be taken as referring to seven sons in addition to the three mentioned before this, but 1 Sam 17:12 says Jesse had eight sons, not eleven. 1 Chr 2:13-15 lists only seven sons, including David. However, 1 Chr 27:18 mentions an additional son, named Elihu.
