2 Chronicles 12:13

12:13 King Rehoboam solidified his rule in Jerusalem; ⁵  he ⁶  was forty-one years old when he became king and he ruled for seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city the Lord chose from all the tribes of Israel to be his home. ⁷  Rehoboam’s ⁸  mother was an Ammonite named Naamah.

2 Chronicles 18:7

18:7 The king of Israel answered Jehoshaphat, “There is still one man through whom we can seek the Lord’s will. ⁹  But I despise ¹⁰  him because he does not prophesy prosperity for me, but always ¹¹  disaster. His name is Micaiah son of Imlah. ¹²  Jehoshaphat said, “The king should not say such things!”

[6:33]  ¹ tn Heb “and do all which the foreigner calls to [i.e., “requests of”] you.”

[6:33]  ² tn Heb “name.” See the note on “reputation” in v. 32.

[6:33]  ³ tn Heb “fear.”

[6:33]  ⁴ 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.

[12:13]  ⁵ tn Heb “and the king, Rehoboam, strengthened himself in Jerusalem and ruled.”

[12:13]  ⁶ tn Heb “Rehoboam.” The recurrence of the proper name here is redundant in terms of contemporary English style, so the pronoun has been used in the translation instead.

[12:13]  ⁷ tn Heb “the city where the Lord chose to place his name from all the tribes of Israel.”

[12:13]  ⁸ tn Heb “his”; the referent has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[18:7]  ⁹ tn Heb “to seek the Lord from him.”

[18:7]  ¹⁰ tn Or “hate.”

[18:7]  ¹¹ tn Heb “all his days.”

[18:7]  ¹² tn The words “his name is” are supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.
