2 Samuel 5:24

5:24 When you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the trees, act decisively. For at that moment the Lord is going before you to strike down the army ¹  of the Philistines.”

2 Samuel 10:11

10:11 Joab ²  said, “If the Arameans start to overpower me, ³  you come to my rescue. If the Ammonites start to overpower you, ⁴  I will come to your rescue.

2 Samuel 15:35-36

15:35 Zadok and Abiathar the priests will be there with you. ⁵  Everything you hear in the king’s palace ⁶  you must tell Zadok and Abiathar the priests. 15:36 Furthermore, their two sons are there with them, Zadok’s son Ahimaaz and Abiathar’s son Jonathan. You must send them to me with any information you hear.” ⁷ 

2 Samuel 19:13

19:13 Say to Amasa, ‘Are you not my flesh and blood? ⁸  God will punish me severely, ⁹  if from this time on you are not the commander of my army in place of Joab!’”

[5:24]  ¹ tn Heb “camp” (so NAB).

[10:11]  ² tn Heb “he”; the referent (Joab) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[10:11]  ³ tn Heb “if Aram is stronger than me.”

[10:11]  ⁴ tn Heb “if the sons of Ammon are stronger than you.”

[15:35]  ⁵ tn Heb “Will not Zadok and Abiathar the priests be there with you?” The rhetorical question draws attention to the fact that Hushai will not be alone.

[15:35]  ⁶ tn Heb “from the house of the king.”

[15:36]  ⁷ tn Heb “and you must send by their hand to me every word which you hear.” Both of the second person verb forms are plural with Zadok, Abiathar, and Hushai being the understood subjects.

[19:13]  ⁸ tn Heb “my bone and my flesh.”

[19:13]  ⁹ tn Heb “Thus God will do to me and thus he will add.”
