1 Samuel 6:5

6:5 You should make images of the sores and images of the mice ¹  that are destroying the land. You should honor the God of Israel. Perhaps he will release his grip on you, your gods, and your land. ² 

1 Samuel 26:15

26:15 David said to Abner, “Aren’t you a man? After all, who is like you in Israel? Why then haven’t you protected your lord the king? One of the soldiers came to kill your lord the king.

[6:5]  ¹ tn Heb “your mice.” A Qumran ms has simply “the mice.”

[6:5]  ² tn Heb “Perhaps he will lighten his hand from upon you and from upon your gods and from upon your land.”
