[4:20]  1 tn Heb “and she did not set her heart.”

[4:1]  2 tn Heb “and the word of Samuel was.” The present translation understands Samuel to be the speaker of the divine word (“Samuel” is a subjective genitive in this case), although the statement could mean that he was the recipient of the divine word (“Samuel” is an objective genitive in this case) who in turn reported it to Israel.

[4:1]  3 tn Heb “and Israel went out to meet the Philistines for battle.”

[4:1]  4 tn Heb “the stone, the help.” The second noun is in apposition to the first one and apparently is the name by which the stone was known. Contrast the expression used in 5:1 and 7:12, where the first word lacks the definite article, unlike 4:1.

[29:3]  5 tn Heb “these days or these years.”

[29:3]  6 tn Heb “from the day of his falling [away] until this day.”

[62:10]  7 tn Heb “do not trust in oppression.” Here “oppression” stands by metonymy for the riches that can be gained by oppressive measures, as the final line of the verse indicates.

[62:10]  8 tn Heb “and in robbery do not place vain hope.” Here “robbery” stands by metonymy for the riches that can be gained by theft, as the next line of the verse indicates.

[62:10]  9 tn Heb “[as for] wealth, when it bears fruit, do not set [your] heart [on it].”
