2 Samuel 14:4

2 Samuel 23:12

23:12 But he made a stand in the middle of that area. He defended ⁵  it and defeated the Philistines; the Lord gave them a great victory.

[9:6]  ¹ tn Heb “he fell on his face and bowed down.”

[9:6]  ² tn Heb “Look, your servant.”

[14:4]  ³ tc The translation follows many medieval Hebrew mss in reading וַתַּבֹא (vattavo’, “and she went”) rather than the MT וַתֹּאמֶר (vatto’mer, “and she said”). The MT reading shows confusion with וַתֹּאמֶר later in the verse. The emendation suggested here is supported by the LXX, the Syriac Peshitta, some mss of the Targum, and Vulgate.

[14:4]  ⁴ tn The word “me” is left to be inferred in the Hebrew text; it is present in the Syriac Peshitta and Vulgate.

[23:12]  ⁵ tn Heb “delivered.”
