[18:5]  ¹ tn Heb “it was good in the eyes of all the people and also in the eyes of the servants of Saul.”

[1:20]  ² tc The MT lacks the conjunction, reading the first word in the phrase as a construct (“wisdom of insight”). While this reading is not impossible, it seems better to follow Theodotion, the Syriac, the Vulgate, and the Sahidic Coptic, all of which have the conjunction.

[1:20]  ³ tn Heb “hands.”

[21:15]  ⁴ tn Grk “a mouth.” It is a metonymy and refers to the reply the Lord will give to them.

[21:15]  ⁵ tn Grk “and wisdom.”
