1 Raja-raja 1:52

1:52 Solomon said, “If he is a loyal subject, ¹  not a hair of his head will be harmed, but if he is found to be a traitor, ²  he will die.”

Matius 10:30

10:30 Even all the hairs on your head are numbered.

Lukas 12:7

12:7 In fact, even the hairs on your head are all numbered. Do not be afraid; ³  you are more valuable than many sparrows.

Lukas 21:18

21:18 Yet ⁴  not a hair of your head will perish. ⁵ 

[1:52]  ¹ tn Heb “if he is a man of strength [or ability].” In this context, where Adonijah calls himself a “servant,” implying allegiance to the new king, the phrase אִישׁ חַיִל (’ish khayil) probably carries the sense of “a worthy man,” that is, “loyal” (see HALOT 311 s.v. חַיִל).

[1:52]  ² tn Heb “but if evil is found in him.”

[12:7]  ³ sn Do not be afraid. One should respect and show reverence to God (v. 5), but need not fear his tender care.

[21:18]  ⁴ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “yet” to indicate the contrast present in this context.

[21:18]  ⁵ sn Given v. 16, the expression not a hair of your head will perish must be taken figuratively and refer to living ultimately in the presence of God.
