1 Samuel 14:13

14:13 Jonathan crawled up on his hands and feet, with his armor bearer following behind him. Jonathan struck down the Philistines, ¹  while his armor bearer came along behind him and killed them. ² 

1 Samuel 25:17

25:17 Now be aware of this, and see what you can do. For disaster has been planned for our lord and his entire household. ³  He is such a wicked person ⁴  that no one tells him anything!”

1 Samuel 27:10

27:10 When Achish would ask, “Where ⁵  did you raid today?” David would say, “The Negev of Judah” or “The Negev of Jeharmeel” or “The Negev of the Kenites.”

[14:13]  ¹ tn Heb “and they fell before Jonathan.”

[14:13]  ² tn Heb “and the one carrying his equipment was killing after him.”

[25:17]  ³ tn Heb “all his house” (so ASV, NRSV); NAB, NLT “his whole family.”

[25:17]  ⁴ tn Heb “he is a son of worthlessness.”

[27:10]  ⁵ tc The translation follows the LXX (ἐπι τίνα, epi tina) and Vulgate (in quem) which assume אֶל מִי (’el mi, “to whom”) rather than the MT אַל (’al, “not”). The MT makes no sense here. Another possibility is that the text originally had אַן (’an, “where”), which has been distorted in the MT to אַל. Cf. the Syriac Peshitta and the Targum, which have “where.”
