[6:39]  ¹ tn Heb “their prayer and their requests for help.”

[6:39]  ² tn Heb “and accomplish their justice.”

[8:2]  ³ tn Heb “Huram” (also in v. 18). Some medieval Hebrew mss, along with the LXX, Syriac, and Vulgate spell the name “Hiram,” agreeing with 1 Chr 14:1. “Huram” is a variant spelling referring to the same individual.
