¹tn Heb “he”; the referent (Rehoboam) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

²tn Heb “the anger of the Lord turned from him and did not destroy completely.”

³tn Heb “and also in Judah there were good things.”

⁴tn Heb “and Jeroboam had caused to circle around an ambush to come from behind them.”

⁵tn Heb “Judah.”

⁶tn Or “In that day.”

⁷tn The Hebrew term צֹאן (tso’n) denotes smaller livestock in general; depending on context it can refer to sheep only or goats only, but their is nothing in the immediate context here to specify one or the other.

⁸tn Heb “and Asa was angry at the seer, and he put him [in] the house of stocks, because of his rage with him over this.”

⁹tn Heb “nevertheless good things are found with you.”

¹⁰tn Here בָּעַר (ba’ar) is not the well attested verb “burn,” but the less common homonym meaning “devastate, sweep away, remove.” See HALOT 146 s.v. II בער.

¹¹tn Heb “and you set your heart to seek the Lord.”

¹²tn Heb “for the judgment of the Lord.”

¹³tc Heb “and to conduct a case [or “for controversy”], and they returned [to] Jerusalem.” Some emend וַיָּשֻׁבוּ (vayyashuvu, “and they returned”) to וַיֵּשְׁבוּ (vayyeshÿvu, “and they lived [in]”). The present translation assumes an emendation to יֹשְׁבֵי (yoshÿvey, “residents of”).

¹⁴tn Heb “and Jehoram arose over the kingdom of his father and strengthened himself.”

¹⁵tn Heb “and he killed all his brothers with the sword.”

¹⁶tn Or “temple.”

¹⁷tn Heb “in Babylon.” Repeating the proper name “Babylon” here would be redundant in contemporary English, so “there” has been used in the translation.
