[1:2]  ¹ tn Heb “Get up!”

[1:2]  ² tn Heb “this Jordan”; the word “River” has been supplied in the translation for clarity (likewise in v. 11).

[1:2]  ³ tc Heb “Cross over this Jordan, you and all these people, to the land that I am giving to them, to the children of Israel.” The final phrase, “to the children of Israel,” is probably a later scribal addition specifying the identity of “these people/them.”

[1:11]  ⁴ tn Heb “to enter to possess the land which the Lord your God is giving to you to possess it.”

[1:14]  ⁷ tn Heb “But you must cross over armed for battle before your brothers, all [you] mighty men of strength.”
