[23:16]  1 tn Heb “and Jehoiada made a covenant between himself and [between] all the people and [between] the king, to become a people for the Lord.”

[23:17]  2 tn Or “tore down.”

[23:17]  3 tn Or “images.”

[23:18]  4 tn Heb “as it is written in.”

[23:20]  5 tn Heb “took.”

[23:21]  6 tn Heb “killed Athaliah with the sword.”

[29:10]  7 tn Heb “now it is with my heart.”

[29:10]  8 tn Heb “so that the rage of his anger might turn from us.” The jussive with vav (ו) conjunctive indicates purpose/result after the preceding statement of intention.

[29:36]  9 tn Heb “prepared.”

[29:36]  10 tn Heb “the people.” The pronoun “they” has been used here for stylistic reasons, to avoid redundancy.

[29:36]  11 tn Heb “for quickly was the matter.”

[26:11]  12 tn Or “household” (so NASB, NIV, NLT); Heb “house” (so KJV, NRSV).

[8:9]  13 tc The unexpected reference to Nehemiah here has led some scholars to suspect that the phrase “Nehemiah the governor” is a later addition to the text and not original.

[8:9]  14 tn Heb “the priest, the scribe.”

[8:9]  15 tn Heb “the people.” The pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons, to avoid redundancy.

[32:11]  16 tn Heb “all [you] pure of heart.” The “heart” is here viewed as the seat of one’s moral character and motives. The “pure of heart” are God’s faithful followers who trust in and love the Lord and, as a result, experience his deliverance (see Pss 7:10; 11:2; 36:10; 64:10; 94:15; 97:11).

[119:111]  17 tn Heb “for the joy of my heart [are] they.”

[3:17]  18 tn Heb “her ways are ways of pleasantness” (so KJV, NRSV). The present translation contracts this expression for the sake of smoothness. The plural of דֶרֶךְ (derekh, “way”) is repeated for emphasis. The noun נֹעַם (noam, “pleasantness”) functions as an attributive genitive: “pleasant ways.”

[3:2]  19 tn The phrase “they will provide” does not appear in the Hebrew text, but are supplied in the translation for the sake of smoothness.

[3:2]  20 tn Heb “length of days and years of life” (so NASB, NRSV). The idiom “length of days” refers to a prolonged life and “years of life” signifies a long time full of life, a life worth living (T. T. Perowne, Proverbs, 51). The term “life” refers to earthly felicity combined with spiritual blessedness (BDB 313 s.v. חַיִּים).

[3:2]  21 tn The noun שָׁלוֹם (shalom, “peace”) here means “welfare, health, prosperity” (BDB 1022 s.v. 3). It can be used of physical health and personal well-being. It is the experience of positive blessing and freedom from negative harm and catastrophe.

[1:12]  22 tn BDAG 473 s.v. ἱκανόω states, “τινὰ εἴς τι someone for someth. Col 1:12.” The point of the text is that God has qualified the saints for a “share” or “portion” in the inheritance of the saints.

[1:12]  23 tn Grk “the inheritance of the saints.” The genitive noun τῶν ἁγίων (twn Jagiwn) is a possessive genitive: “the saints’ inheritance.”
