[2:32]  ¹ tn Heb “you will see [the] trouble of [the] dwelling place.” Since God’s dwelling place/sanctuary is in view, the pronoun is supplied in the translation (see v. 29).

[2:32]  ² tn Heb “in all which he does good with Israel.”

[2:32]  ³ tc The LXX and a Qumran manuscript have the first person pronoun “my” here.

[17:18]  ⁵ tn Heb “officer of the thousand.”

[17:18]  ⁶ tn Heb “and your brothers, observe with respect to welfare.”
