2 Samuel 7:26

7:26 so you may gain lasting fame, ²  as people say, ³  ‘The Lord of hosts is God over Israel!’ The dynasty ⁴  of your servant David will be established before you,

[7:22]  ¹ tn Heb “in all which we heard with our ears.” The phrase translated “in all” בְּכֹל (bÿkhol) should probably be emended to “according to all” כְּכֹל (kÿkhol).

[7:26]  ² tn Heb “and your name might be great permanently.” Following the imperative in v. 23b, the prefixed verbal form with vav conjunctive indicates purpose/result.

[7:26]  ³ tn Heb “saying.” The words “as people” are supplied in the translation for clarification and stylistic reasons.

[7:26]  ⁴ tn Heb “the house.” See the note on “dynastic house” in the following verse.
