1 Tawarikh 21:12

21:12 three ³⁸  years of famine, or three months being chased by your enemies and struck down by their swords, ³⁹  or three days being struck down by the Lord, during which a plague will invade the land and the Lord’s messenger will destroy throughout Israel’s territory.’ ⁴⁰  Now, decide what I should tell the one who sent me.”

[10:6]  ¹ tn Heb “all his house.” This is probably to be understood as a general summary statement. It could include other males in Saul’s household besides his three sons, cf. 1 Sam 31:6. If it refers only to the male members of his household who would have stood in succession to the throne (cf. NLT, “bringing his dynasty to an end,”) even here there is an exception, since one of Saul’s sons, Eshbaal (or “Ishbosheth” in 2 Sam 2:8) was not killed in the battle and became king over Israel, which he ruled for two years (2 Sam 2:10) until he was assassinated by Rechab and Baanah (2 Sam 4:5-6). The tribe of Judah never acknowledged Ishbosheth as king; instead they followed David (2 Sam 2:10).

[13:10]  ² tn Heb “and the anger of the Lord burned against Uzzah.”

[13:10]  ³ tn Heb “because he stretched out his hand over the ark.”

[13:10]  ⁴ sn The modern reader might think God seemed to overreact here, but Israel needed a vivid object lesson of God’s holiness. By loading the ark on a cart, David had violated the instructions in God’s law (Exod 25:12-14; Num 4:5-6, 15). Uzzah’s action, however innocent it may seem, betrayed a certain lack of reverence for God’s presence. God had to remind his people that his holiness could not under any circumstances be violated.

[10:7]  ⁵ tn Heb “they”; the referent (the army) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[10:14]  ⁶ tn Heb “he”; the referent (the Lord) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[19:18]  ⁷ tc The parallel text of 2 Sam 10:18 has “seven hundred.”

[19:18]  ⁸ tn The parallel text of 2 Sam 10:18 has the variant spelling “Shobach.”

[2:19]  ⁹ tn Heb “took for himself.”

[1:44]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “ruled in his place,” here and in vv. 45-50.

[1:48]  ¹¹ tn Or “near the river.”

[1:48]  sn The river may refer to the Euphrates River (cf. NRSV, CEV, NLT).

[2:24]  ¹² tn Heb “And after the death of Hezron in Caleb Ephrathah, and the wife of Hezron, Abijah, and she bore to him Ashhur the father of Tekoa.” Perhaps one could translate: “After Hezron died in Caleb Ephrathah, Abijah, Hezron’s wife, bore to him Ashhur, the father of Tekoa” (cf. NASB, NIV, NRSV). In this case the text suggests that Abijah was born after his father’s death. Because of the awkward syntax and the odd appearance of “Caleb Ephrathah” as a place name, some prefer to emend the text. Some alter בְּכָלֵב אֶפְרָתָה (bÿkhalev ’efratah, “in Caleb Ephrathah”) to בָּא כָלֵב אֶפְרָתָה (bo’ khalev ’efratah, “Caleb had sexual relations with Ephrath”) and then change אֲבִיָּה (’aviyyah, “Abijah”) to אָבִיהוּ (’avihu, “his father”). This results in the following translation: “And after Hezron’s death, Caleb had sexual relations with Ephrath, his father Hezron’s wife, and she bore to him Ashhur the father of Tekoa” (cf. NAB). This would mean that Caleb’s second wife Ephrath had actually been his late father’s wife (probably Caleb’s stepmother). Perhaps the text was subsequently altered because Caleb’s actions appeared improper in light of the injunctions in Lev 18:8; 20:11; Deut 22:30; 27:20 (which probably refer, however, to a son having sexual relations with his stepmother while his father is still alive).

[5:22]  ¹³ tn Heb “from God [was] the battle.”

[5:22]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “many slain fell.”

[5:22]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “and they lived in place of them until the exile.” The referent of “them” (the Hagrites) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[23:22]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “the sons of Kish, their brothers [i.e., relatives/cousins] lifted them up.” For other uses of נָאָשׂ (na’as, “lift up”) in the sense of “marry,” see BDB 671 s.v. Qal.3.d.

[10:13]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “and Saul died because of his unfaithfulness by which he acted unfaithfully against the Lord, concerning the word of the Lord which he did not keep, also to Saul, a ritual pit to seek.” The text alludes to the incident recorded in 1 Sam 28. The Hebrew term אוֹב (’ov, “ritual pit”) refers to a pit used by a magician to conjure up underworld spirits. In 1 Sam 28:7 the witch of Endor is called a בַּעֲלַת־אוֹב (ba’alat-’ov, “owner of a ritual pit”). See H. A. Hoffner, “Second Millennium Antecedents to the Hebrew áo‚b,” JBL 86 (1967): 385-401.

[1:50]  ¹⁸ tc Many medieval Hebrew mss, along with some LXX mss, the Syriac, and Vulgate, read “Pau.” See also Gen 36:39.

[19:2]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “do loyalty.”

[19:2]  ²⁰ tn Heb “did loyalty.”

[19:2]  ²¹ tn Heb “to console him concerning his father.”

[19:2]  ²² tn Heb “and the servants of David came to the land of the sons of Ammon to Hanun to console him.”

[20:8]  ²³ tn Heb “they fell.”

[20:8]  ²⁴ tn Heb “his servants.”

[22:5]  ²⁵ tn Heb “a young man and tender.”

[22:5]  ²⁶ tn Heb “and the house to build to make exceedingly great for a name and for splendor for all the lands.”

[29:28]  ²⁷ tn Heb “satisfied with days, wealth, and honor.”

[5:10]  ²⁸ 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.”

[11:11]  ²⁹ tn Heb “and these are the number of the warriors who were David’s.”

[11:11]  ³⁰ tc The marginal reading (Qere) has “officers;” the consonantal text (Kethib) has “the Thirty” (see v. 15).

[11:11]  ³¹ tn Heb “he was wielding his spear against 300, [who were] slain at one time.”

[11:20]  ³² tc The Syriac reads “thirty” here and at the beginning of v. 21; this reading is followed by some English translations (cf. NAB, NASB, NRSV, NLT).

[11:20]  ³³ tn Heb “he was wielding his spear against three hundred, [who were] slain.”

[11:20]  ³⁴ tn Heb “and to him [reading with the Qere] there was a name among the three.”

[29:15]  ³⁵ tn Heb “fathers” (also in vv. 18, 20).

[29:15]  ³⁶ tn Or perhaps “hope.”

[10:4]  ³⁷ tn Heb “so these uncircumcised ones might not come and abuse me.”

[21:12]  ³⁸ tc The parallel text in the MT of 2 Sam 24:13 has “seven,” but LXX has “three” there.

[21:12]  ³⁹ tc Heb “or three months being swept away from before your enemies and the sword of your enemies overtaking.” The Hebrew term נִסְפֶּה (nisppeh, Niphal participle from סָפָה, safah) should probably be emended to נֻסְכָה (nusÿkhah, Qal infinitive from נוּס [nus] with second masculine singular suffix). See 2 Sam 24:13.

[21:12]  ⁴⁰ tn Heb “or three days of the sword of the Lord and plague in the land, and the messenger [or “angel”] of the Lord destroying in all the territory of Israel.”
