2 Samuel 18:31

18:31 Then the Cushite arrived and said, ²  “May my lord the king now receive the good news! The Lord has vindicated you today and delivered you from the hand of all who have rebelled against you!” ³ 

[1:13]  ¹ tn The Hebrew word used here refers to a foreigner whose social standing was something less than that of native residents of the land, but something more than that of a nonresident alien who was merely passing through.

[18:31]  ² tn Heb “And look, the Cushite came and the Cushite said.”

[18:31]  ³ tn Heb “for the Lord has vindicated you today from the hand of all those rising against you.”
