²sn According to Gen 10:8-12, Nimrod, who was famous as a warrior and hunter, founded Assyria.

³tc The MT reads “in her gates,” but the text should be emended to בַּפְּתִיחָה (baptikhah, “with a drawn sword”).

⁴tn Heb “he”; the referent (the coming king) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
