18:6 When the men 1 arrived after David returned from striking down the Philistine, the women from all the cities of Israel came out singing and dancing to meet King Saul. They were happy as they played their tambourines and three-stringed instruments. 2
30:16 So he took David 3 down, and they found them spread out over the land. They were eating and drinking and enjoying themselves because of all the loot 4 they had taken from the land of the Philistines and from the land of Judah.
1 tn Heb “them.” The masculine plural pronoun apparently refers to the returning soldiers.
2 tn Heb “with tambourines, with joy, and with three-stringed instruments.”
3 tn Heb “him”; the referent (David) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
4 tn Heb “because of all the large plunder.”
