2 Samuel 7:5-7
servant David <05650 01732> [my servant David. Heb. to my servant, to David. Shalt.]
lived <03427> [I have not.]
traveling <01980> [walked.]
tent <0168> [tent.]
moved among <01980> [walked.]
any .... leaders <07626 0259> [any of the tribes.]
[any of the judges.]
Instead of [shbty,] {shivtey,} "tribes," we should probably read, with Houbigant, Drs. Waterland and A. Clarke, and others, [shpty,] {shophtey,} "judges;" which is the reading in the parallel passage. Indeed there is but one letter of difference between them, and letters which might be easily mistaken for each other; the apex under the upper stroke of the [p,] {pay,} being the only mark to distinguish it from the [b,] {baith.} Compare with ver. 11.
care for <07462> [feed.]
