[18:1]  ³ tn Heb “and the land was subdued before them.”

[1:13]  ⁴ tn Heb “remember the word which Moses, the Lord’s servant, commanded you.”

[1:13]  ⁵ tn Heb “is providing rest for you and is giving to you this land.”

[16:33]  ⁷ tn Heb “all its decision.”

[16:33]  ⁸ sn The point concerns seeking God’s will through the practice. The Lord gives guidance in decisions that are submitted to him.

[1:24]  ⁹ tn Grk “And praying, they said.” Because of the difference between Greek style, which often begins sentences or clauses with “and,” and English style, which generally does not, καί (kai) has not been translated here.
