[3:26]  ¹ tn Heb “and the king of Moab saw that the battle was too strong for him.”

[3:26]  ² tn Heb “he took with him seven hundred men, who drew the sword, to break through against.”

[11:4]  ³ tn Heb “Jehoiada sent and took.”

[11:4]  ⁴ sn The Carians were apparently a bodyguard, probably comprised of foreigners. See HALOT 497 s.v. כָּרִי and M. Cogan and H. Tadmor, II Kings (AB), 126.

[11:4]  ⁵ tn Heb “the runners.”

[11:4]  ⁶ tn Heb “he brought them to himself.”

[11:4]  ⁷ tn Or “covenant.”

[11:9]  ⁵ tn Heb “according to all that.”

[11:9]  ⁶ tn Heb “came.”

[11:15]  ⁷ tn The Hebrew text also has, “and said to them.” This is redundant in English and has not been translated.

[11:15]  ⁸ tn Heb “ranks.”

[11:15]  ⁹ tn Heb “for the priest had said, ‘Let her not be put to death in the house of the Lord.’”

[11:19]  ⁹ tn Heb “the Gate of the Runners of the House of the King.”

[11:19]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “he”; the referent (the king) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[14:13]  ¹¹ tc The MT has the plural form of the verb, but the final vav (ו) is virtually dittographic. The word that immediately follows in the Hebrew text begins with a yod (י). The form should be emended to the singular, which is consistent in number with the verb (“he broke down”) that follows.

[14:13]  ¹² tn Heb “came to.”

[14:13]  ¹³ tn Heb “four hundred cubits.” The standard cubit in the OT is assumed by most authorities to be about eighteen inches (45 cm) long.

[19:35]  ¹³ tn This refers to the Israelites and/or the rest of the Assyrian army.

[19:35]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “look, all of them were dead bodies.”
