¹ tn Heb “sons.” The Hebrew text has the plural, but only one son is listed.

⁴ tn Heb “after him.”

⁵ tn Heb “and Kenaniah, the leader of the Levites, with lifting up, supervising with lifting up, for he was well-informed.” The precise nuance of מַשָּׂא (masa’, “lifting up”) is unclear. Some understand it as a reference to supervising the singing and music (e.g., NIV: “Kenaniah…was in charge of the singing”; NEB: “Kenaniah…was precentor in charge of the music”).

⁶ tn Or “feared above.”

⁷ tn 2 Sam 8:1 identifies this region as “Metheg Ammah.”

⁸ tn Heb “from the hand of the Philistines.” Here “hand” is figurative language for “control.”

⁹ tn Heb “and full of years.”

¹⁰ tn Heb “the sons of Kish, their brothers [i.e., relatives/cousins] lifted them up.” For other uses of נָאָשׂ (na’as, “lift up”) in the sense of “marry,” see BDB 671 s.v. Qal.3.d.
