[6:26]  1 tn Heb “when.” In the Hebrew text vv. 26-27a actually contain one lengthy conditional sentence, which the translation has divided into two sentences for stylistic reasons.

[6:26]  2 tn Or “heavens” (also in v. 12). The Hebrew term שָׁמַיִם (shamayim) may be translated “heaven(s)” or “sky” depending on the context.

[6:26]  3 tn Heb “they.”

[6:26]  4 tn Heb “confess [or perhaps, “praise”] your name.”

[6:26]  5 tn The Hebrew text reads “because you answer them,” as if the verb is from עָנָה (’anah, “answer”). However, this reference to a divine answer is premature, since the next verse asks for God to intervene in mercy. It is better to revocalize the consonantal text as תְעַנֵּם (tÿannem, “you afflict them”), a Piel verb form from the homonym עָנָה (“afflict”).

[6:38]  6 tn Or “soul.”

[6:38]  7 tn Heb “your name.” The word “name” sometimes refers to one’s reputation or honor (thus the translation here, “your honor).

[7:14]  11 tn Heb “over whom my name is called.” The Hebrew idiom “call the name over” indicates ownership. See 2 Sam 12:28.

[7:14]  12 tn Heb “seek my face,” where “my face” is figurative for God’s presence and acceptance.

[7:14]  13 tn Heb “and turn from their sinful ways.”

[7:14]  14 tn Heb “hear.”

[7:14]  15 sn Here the phrase heal their land means restore the damage done by the drought, locusts and plague mentioned in v. 13.

[10:6]  16 tn Heb “stood before.”

[10:6]  17 tn Heb “saying.”

[10:9]  21 tn Heb “Lighten the yoke which your father placed on us.”

[11:1]  26 tn Heb “he summoned the house of Judah and Benjamin, 180,000 chosen men, accomplished in war.”

[18:16]  31 tn Heb “he”; the referent (Micaiah) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[22:6]  36 tn Heb “he”; the referent (Joram) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[22:6]  37 tn Heb “which the Syrians inflicted [on] him.”

[22:6]  38 tc Most Hebrew mss read “Azariah.” A few Hebrew mss, the LXX, Vulgate, and Syriac read “Ahaziah” (cf. 2 Kgs 8:29).

[22:6]  39 tn Heb “because he was sick,” presumably referring to the wounds he received in the battle with the Syrians.

[25:13]  41 tn Heb “had sent back from going with him to the battle.”

[25:13]  42 tn Heb “stripped.”

[25:13]  43 map For location see Map2 B1; Map4 D3; Map5 E2; Map6 A4; Map7 C1.

[25:13]  44 tn Heb “struck down.”

[28:15]  46 tn Heb “and the men who were designated by names arose and took the captives and all their naked ones they clothed from the loot.”

[28:15]  47 tn Heb “and poured oil on them.”

[28:15]  48 tn Heb “and they led them on donkeys, with respect to everyone stumbling.”

[28:15]  49 map For location see Map5 B2; Map6 E1; Map7 E1; Map8 E3; Map10 A2; Map11 A1.

[30:8]  51 tn Heb “don’t stiffen your neck” (a Hebrew idiom for being stubborn).

[30:8]  52 tn Heb “give a hand.” On the meaning of the idiom here, see HALOT 387 s.v. I יָד 2.

[30:8]  53 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.

[32:21]  56 tn Or “an angel.”

[32:21]  57 tn Heb “he”; the referent (Sennacherib) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[32:21]  58 tn Heb “and he returned with shame of face to his land.”

[32:21]  59 tn Heb “and some from those who went out from him, from his inward parts.”

[33:3]  61 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]  62 tn Or “served.”

[34:16]  66 tn Heb “returned still the king a word, saying.”

[34:28]  71 tn Heb “Therefore, behold, I am gathering you to your fathers, and you will be gathered to your tomb in peace.”
