[4:17]  ¹ tn The Hebrew text has simply, “and she gave birth to,” without identifying the subject. The words “Mered’s wife Bithiah” are added in the translation for clarification. See v. 18b, which mentions “Bethiah, whom Mered married.”

[5:10]  ² tn Heb “and in the days of Saul they made war with the Hagrites and they fell by their hand and they lived in their tents unto all the face of the east of Gilead.”

[6:44]  ³ tn Heb “and the sons of Merari, their brothers, on the left.”

[6:60]  ⁴ tn The parallel passage in Josh 21:17 adds “Gibeon and its pasturelands” (cf. NAB, NIV, NCV, NLT). The words “they were allotted” are supplied in the translation for both clarity and stylistic reasons.

[15:16]  ⁵ tn Heb “causing to be heard to lift up with a voice of joy.”

[15:18]  ⁶ tc The Hebrew text adds בֶּן (ben, “son”) here; the word is omitted in three Hebrew mss and most LXX mss. If the word is original, perhaps the name of Zechariah’s father was accidentally omitted. Some English versions treat the word as an additional name in the list (“Ben”; e.g., KJV, ASV, NASB).

[16:42]  ⁷ tn Heb “and with them, Heman and Jeduthun, trumpets and cymbals for sounding, and the instrument of song of God, and the sons of Jeduthun [were] at the gate.”

[20:4]  ¹¹ tn Heb “they”; the referent (the Philistines) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[24:20]  ¹³ tn This appears to be a variant of the name Shebuel (cf. 1 Chr 23:16 and 26:24).

[28:11]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “for the porch.” The word “temple” was supplied in the translation for clarity.

[28:11]  ¹⁵ tn Or “storerooms.”

[28:11]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “house.”

[28:13]  ¹⁷ tn The words “he gave him the regulations” are supplied in the translation for clarity and for stylistic reasons.
