[6:2]  1 tn The words “O Lord” do not appear in the Hebrew text, but they are supplied in the translation for clarification; Solomon addresses the Lord in prayer at this point.

[6:18]  2 tn Heb “Indeed, can God really live with mankind on the earth?” The rhetorical question expects the answer, “Of course not,” the force of which is reflected in the translation “God does not really live with mankind on the earth.”

[6:34]  3 tn Heb “When your people go out for battle against their enemies in the way which you send them.”

[6:34]  4 tn Heb “toward this city which you have chosen and the house which I built for your name.”

[6:38]  4 tn Or “soul.”

[6:38]  5 tn Heb “your name.” The word “name” sometimes refers to one’s reputation or honor (thus the translation here, “your honor).

[6:33]  5 tn Heb “and do all which the foreigner calls to [i.e., “requests of”] you.”

[6:33]  7 tn Heb “fear.”

[6:33]  8 tn Heb “that your name is called over this house which I built.” The Hebrew idiom “call the name over” indicates ownership. See 2 Sam 12:28.
