1 Samuel 6:20

6:20 The residents of Beth Shemesh asked, “Who is able to stand before the Lord, this holy God? To whom will the ark ¹  go up from here?”

1 Samuel 9:17

9:17 When Samuel saw Saul, the Lord said, ²  “Here is the man that I told you about! He will rule over my people.”

[6:20]  ¹ tn Heb “he” or “it”; the referent here (the ark) has been specified in the translation for clarity (cf. also NIV, CEV, NLT). Others, however, take the referent to be the Lord himself.

[9:17]  ² tn Heb “responded.”
