[2:4]  1 tn Heb “house.”

[2:4]  2 tn Heb “and they told David.” The subject appears to be indefinite, allowing one to translate the verb as passive with David as subject.

[2:4]  3 tn Heb “men.”

[2:1]  4 tn Heb “he said.” The referent (the Lord) has been specified in the translation for clarity and for stylistic reasons.

[16:13]  5 tn Heb “and he cursed and threw stones, opposite him, pelting [them] with dirt.” The offline vÿqatal construction in the last clause indicates an action that was complementary to the action described in the preceding clause. He simultaneously threw stones and dirt.
