[26:29]  1 tn The oath formula is used: “if you do us harm” means “so that you will not do.”

[26:29]  2 tn Heb “touched.”

[26:29]  3 tn Heb “and just as we have done only good with you.”

[26:29]  4 tn Heb “and we sent you away.”

[26:29]  5 tn The Philistine leaders are making an observation, not pronouncing a blessing, so the translation reads “you are blessed” rather than “may you be blessed” (cf. NAB).
