NETBible

NET Notes

tn Heb “to bless.”

tn The plural form is used in the Hebrew text to indicate honor and authority.

tc Many Hebrew mss agree with the Qere in reading simply “God.”

tn Heb “make the name of Solomon better than your name, and make his throne greater than your throne.” The term שֵׁם (shem, “name”) is used here of one’s fame and reputation.

tn Or “bowed down; worshiped.”
