2 Chronicles 32:11-13

32:11 Hezekiah says, “The Lord our God will rescue us from the power ¹⁰  of the king of Assyria.” But he is misleading you and you will die of hunger and thirst! ¹¹  32:12 Hezekiah is the one who eliminated ¹²  the Lord’s ¹³  high places and altars and then told Judah and Jerusalem, “At one altar you must worship and offer sacrifices.” 32:13 Are you not aware of what I and my predecessors ¹⁴  have done to all the nations of the surrounding lands? Have the gods of the surrounding lands actually been able to rescue their lands from my power? ¹⁵ 

[12:15]  ¹ tn Heb “As for the events of Rehoboam, the former and the latter, are they not written?”

[13:5]  ² tn Heb “Do you not know that the Lord God of Israel has given kingship to David over Israel permanently, to him and to his sons [by] a covenant of salt?”

[20:7]  ³ tn Heb “did you not drive out?” This is another rhetorical question which expects a positive response; see the note on the word “heaven” in the previous verse.

[20:7]  ⁴ tn Heb “permanently.”

[20:7]  ⁵ tn Or perhaps “your covenantal partner.” See Isa 41:8.

[25:26]  ⁴ tn Heb “As for the rest of the events of Amaziah, the former and the latter, are they not – behold, they are written on the scroll of the kings of Judah and Israel.”

[28:10]  ⁵ tn Heb “saying.”

[28:10]  ⁶ tn Heb “to enslave as male servants and female servants.”

[28:10]  ⁷ tn Heb “sons.”

[32:11]  ⁶ tn Heb “hand.”

[32:11]  ⁷ tn Heb “Is not Hezekiah misleading you to give you over to die by hunger and thirst, saying, ‘The Lord our God will rescue us from the hand of the king of Assyria’?’

[32:12]  ⁷ tn Heb “Did not he, Hezekiah, eliminate…?” This rhetorical question presupposes a positive reply (“yes, he did”) and so has been translated here as a positive statement.

[32:12]  ⁸ tn Heb “his”; the referent (the Lord) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[32:13]  ⁸ tn Heb “fathers” (also in vv. 14, 15), but in this context the term does not necessarily refer to Sennacherib’s ancestors, but to his predecessors on the Assyrian throne.

[32:13]  ⁹ tn Heb “hand.”
