6:6 But now I have chosen Jerusalem as a place to live, ¹  and I have chosen David to lead my people Israel.’

2 Chronicles 10:16

10:16 When all Israel saw that the king refused to listen to them, the people answered the king, “We have no portion in David – no share in the son of Jesse! ²  Return to your homes, O Israel! ³  Now, look after your own dynasty, O David!” ⁴  So all Israel returned to their homes. ⁵ 

[6:6]  ¹ tn Heb for my name to be there.” See also the note on the word “live” in v. 5.

[10:16]  ² sn The people’s point seems to be that they have no familial relationship with David that brings them any benefits or places upon them any obligations. They are being treated like outsiders.

[10:16]  ³ tn Heb “each one to your tents, Israel.” The word “return” is supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[10:16]  ⁴ tn Heb “Now see your house, David.”

[10:16]  ⁵ tn Heb “went to their tents.”
