Trust in the Lord your God and you will be safe! ⁵  Trust in the message of his prophets and you will win.”

[7:10]  ¹ tn Heb “he”; the referent (Solomon) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[7:10]  ² tn The words “they left” are supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[7:10]  ³ tn Heb “good of heart.”

[20:20]  ⁴ tn Heb “O Judah.” The words “you people of” are supplied in the translation for clarity. See the note on the word “Judah” in v. 15.

[20:20]  ⁵ tn There is a wordplay in the Hebrew text. The Hiphil verb form הַאֲמִינוּ (ha’aminu, “trust”) and the Niphal form תֵאָמֵנוּ (te’amenu, “you will be safe”) come from the same verbal root (אָמַן, ’aman).
