2 Samuel 4:10

4:10 when someone told me that Saul was dead – even though he thought he was bringing good news ¹  – I seized him and killed him in Ziklag. That was the good news I gave to him!

2 Samuel 11:2

11:2 One evening David got up from his bed and walked around on the roof of his palace. ²  From the roof he saw a woman bathing. Now this woman was very attractive. ³ 

[4:10]  ¹ tn Heb “and he was like a bearer of good news in his eyes.”

[11:2]  ² tn Heb “on the roof of the house of the king.” So also in vv. 8, 9.

[11:2]  ³ tn The disjunctive clause highlights this observation and builds the tension of the story.
