1 Samuel 6:20

6:20 The residents of Beth Shemesh asked, “Who is able to stand before the Lord, this holy God? To whom will the ark ¹  go up from here?”

1 Samuel 12:7

12:7 Now take your positions, so I may confront you ²  before the Lord regarding all the Lord’s just actions toward you and your ancestors. ³ 

[6:20]  ¹ tn Heb “he” or “it”; the referent here (the ark) has been specified in the translation for clarity (cf. also NIV, CEV, NLT). Others, however, take the referent to be the Lord himself.

[12:7]  ² tn Heb “and I will enter into judgment with you” (NRSV similar); NAB “and I shall arraign you.”

[12:7]  ³ tn Heb “all the just actions which he has done with you and with your fathers.”
