[2:21]  ¹ tn Or “healed.”

[2:21]  ² tn Heb “there will no longer be from there death and miscarriage [or, ‘barrenness’].”

[9:3]  ⁵ tn Heb “anointed.”

[9:3]  ⁶ tn Heb “and open the door and run away and do not delay.”

[10:8]  ⁷ tn Heb “him”; the referent (Jehu) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[10:8]  ⁸ tn Heb “he”; the referent (Jehu) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
