[34:33]  1 tn Or “caused, forced.”

[34:33]  2 tn Heb “all his days.”

[2:18]  3 tn Heb “made.”

[2:18]  4 tn Heb “carriers of loads.”

[2:18]  5 tn Or “quarry workers”; Heb “cutters” (probably referring to stonecutters).

[2:18]  6 tn Heb “and thirty-six hundred [as] supervisors to compel the people to work.”

[7:19]  5 tn The Hebrew pronoun is plural, suggesting that Solomon and all Israel (or perhaps Solomon and his successors) are in view. To convey this to the English reader, the translation “you people” has been employed.

[7:19]  6 tn Heb “which I placed before you.”

[7:19]  7 tn Heb “and walk and serve other gods and bow down to them.”

[10:4]  7 tn Heb “made our yoke burdensome.”

[10:4]  8 tn Heb “but you, now, lighten the burdensome work of your father and the heavy yoke which he placed on us, and we will serve you.” In the Hebrew text the prefixed verbal form with vav (וְנַעַבְדֶךָ, vÿnaavdekha, “and we will serve you”) following the imperative (הָקֵל, haqel, “lighten”) indicates purpose/result. The conditional sentence used in the present translation is an attempt to bring out the logical relationship between these forms.

[24:18]  9 tn Heb “fathers” (also in v. 24).

[24:18]  10 tn Heb “served.”

[33:16]  11 tn Heb “told Judah.” The words “the people of” are supplied in the translation for clarity. The Hebrew text uses the name “Judah” here by metonymy for the people of Judah.

[33:22]  13 tn Heb “in the eyes of.”

[33:22]  14 tn Or “served.”

[7:22]  15 tn Heb “and they will say.”

[7:22]  16 tn Heb “fathers.”

[7:22]  17 tn Heb “and they took hold of other gods and bowed down to them and served them.”

[30:8]  17 tn Heb “don’t stiffen your neck” (a Hebrew idiom for being stubborn).

[30:8]  18 tn Heb “give a hand.” On the meaning of the idiom here, see HALOT 387 s.v. I יָד 2.

[30:8]  19 tn Heb “so that the rage of his anger might turn from you.” The jussive with vav conjunctive indicates purpose/result after the preceding imperative.

[33:3]  19 tn The phrase כָל צְבָא הֲַשָּׁמַיִם (khol tsÿvahashamayim), traditionally translated “all the host of heaven,” refers to the heavenly lights, including stars and planets. In 1 Kgs 22:19 these heavenly bodies are pictured as members of the Lord’s royal court or assembly, but many other texts view them as the illegitimate objects of pagan and Israelite worship.

[33:3]  20 tn Or “served.”
