1 Samuel 6:5

6:5 You should make images of the sores and images of the mice ¹  that are destroying the land. You should honor the God of Israel. Perhaps he will release his grip on you, your gods, and your land. ² 

1 Samuel 17:51

17:51 David ran and stood over the Philistine. He grabbed Goliath’s ³  sword, drew it from its sheath, ⁴  killed him, and cut off his head with it. When the Philistines saw their champion was dead, they ran away.

[6:5]  ¹ tn Heb “your mice.” A Qumran ms has simply “the mice.”

[6:5]  ² tn Heb “Perhaps he will lighten his hand from upon you and from upon your gods and from upon your land.”

[17:51]  ³ tn Heb “his”; the referent (Goliath) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[17:51]  ⁴ tc Most LXX mss lack the words “drew it from its sheath.”
