[2:17]  ¹ tn Heb “counted.”

[15:2]  ² tn Heb “went out before.”

[15:2]  ³ tn Heb “when you are with him.”

[15:2]  ⁴ tn Heb “he will allow himself to be found by you.”

[20:25]  ³ tn Or “army.”

[20:25]  ⁴ tc The MT reads פְגָרִים (fÿgarim, “corpses”), but this seems odd among a list of plunder. A few medieval Hebrew mss and the Vulgate read בְגָדִים (vÿgadim, “clothing”), which fits the context much better.

[20:25]  ⁵ tn Heb “and they snatched away for themselves so that there was no carrying away.”

[20:25]  ⁶ tn Heb “and they were three days looting the plunder for it was great.”

[21:17]  ⁴ tn Heb “broke it up.”

[21:17]  ⁵ tn Heb “all the property which was found in the house of the king.”

[25:5]  ⁵ tn Heb “Judah.” The words “the people of” are supplied in the translation for clarity. The Hebrew text uses the name “Judah” by metonymy here for the people of Judah.

[25:5]  ⁶ tn Heb “young men going out to war.”

[25:5]  ⁷ tn Heb “holding a spear and a shield.”

[29:16]  ⁶ tn Heb “in the temple of the Lord.”

[30:21]  ⁷ tn Heb “and they were praising the Lord day by day, the Levites and the priests with instruments of strength to the Lord.” The phrase בִּכְלֵי־עֹז (bikhley-’oz, “with instruments of strength”) might refer to loud sounding musical instruments (NASB “with loud instruments”; NEB “with unrestrained fervour”). The present translation assumes an emendation to בְּכָל־עֹז (bÿkhol-’oz, “with all strength”); see 1 Chr 13:8, as well as HALOT 805 s.v. I עֹז and BDB 739 s.v. עֹז).

[32:4]  ⁸ tn Heb “and they closed up all the springs and the stream that flows in the midst of the land.” Here אָרֶץ (’arets, “land”) does not refer to the entire land, but to a smaller region like a district.

[32:4]  ⁹ tn Heb “land, saying.”

[34:33]  ⁹ tn Or “caused, forced.”

[34:33]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “all his days.”

[35:7]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “and Josiah supplied for the sons of the people sheep, lambs and sons of goats, the whole for the Passover sacrifices for everyone who was found according to the number of thirty thousand, and three thousand cattle. These were from the property of the king.”

[36:8]  ¹¹ tn Heb “As for the rest of the events of Jehoiakim, and his horrible deeds which he did and that which was found against him, look, they are written on the scroll of the kings of Israel and Judah.”
