[3:12]  ¹ tn Or “fulfill.”

[8:20]  ² tn Heb “and go out before us.”

[13:20]  ³ tc The translation follows the LXX (“their sickle”) here, rather than the MT “plowshares,” which is due to dittography from the word earlier in the verse.

[14:25]  ⁴ tn Heb “all the land.”

[14:25]  ⁵ tn Heb “the surface of the field.”

[25:12]  ⁵ tn Heb “him”; the referent (David) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
