[17:52]  ¹ tn Heb “arose and cried out.”

[17:52]  ² tc Most of the LXX ms tradition has here “Gath.”

[18:6]  ¹ tn Heb “them.” The masculine plural pronoun apparently refers to the returning soldiers.

[18:6]  ² tn Heb “with tambourines, with joy, and with three-stringed instruments.”

[31:12]  ¹ tc The translation follows the MT, which vocalizes the verb as a Qal. The LXX, however, treats the verb as a Hiphil, “they brought.”
