[2:11]  ¹ tn Heb “Huram” (also in v. 12). Some medieval Hebrew mss, along with the LXX, Syriac, and Vulgate spell the name “Hiram,” agreeing with 1 Chr 14:1. “Huram” is a variant spelling referring to the same individual.

[6:23]  ² tn Heb “and you, hear [from] heaven and act and judge your servants by repaying the guilty, to give his way on his head, and to declare the innocent to be innocent, to give to him according to his innocence.”

[6:30]  ³ tn The words “their sin” are not in the Hebrew text, but are supplied for clarification.

[6:30]  ⁴ tn Heb “and act and give to each one according to all his ways because you know his heart.” In the Hebrew text vv. 28-30a actually contain one lengthy conditional sentence, which the translation has divided up for stylistic reasons.

[10:16]  ¹¹ sn The people’s point seems to be that they have no familial relationship with David that brings them any benefits or places upon them any obligations. They are being treated like outsiders.

[10:16]  ¹² tn Heb “each one to your tents, Israel.” The word “return” is supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[10:16]  ¹³ tn Heb “Now see your house, David.”

[10:16]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “went to their tents.”

[18:16]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “he”; the referent (Micaiah) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[24:22]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “did not remember.”

[24:22]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “his”; the referent (Jehoiada) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[24:22]  ¹⁸ tn Heb “he”; the referent (Zechariah) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[24:22]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “and seek [ – ].” The direct object of “seek” is omitted in the Hebrew text but implied; “vengeance” is supplied for clarification.

[24:25]  ²⁰ tn Heb “him”; the referent (Joash) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[24:25]  ²¹ tn Heb “because of the shed blood of.”

[24:25]  ²² tc The MT has the plural בְּנֵי (bÿney, “sons”), but the final yod is dittographic. Note the yod that immediately follows.
