tn Heb “he”; the referent (Ephraim) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

tn Heb “because in tragedy there had come to his house.” The preposition prefixed to רָעָה (raah) should probably be omitted. The Hebrew noun רָעָה (“tragedy”) should be understood as the subject of the feminine verb form that follows.

tn Heb “and now, O Lord, the word which you spoke concerning your servant and concerning his house, may it be established permanently.”

tn Heb “as you have spoken.”
