1 tn Heb “And King Solomon and all the assembly of Israel, those who had been gathered to him, [were] before the ark, sacrificing sheep and cattle which could not be counted or numbered because of the abundance.”
2 tn Heb “they could not be seen outside.”
3 tn Or “army.”
4 tc The MT reads פְגָרִים (fÿgarim, “corpses”), but this seems odd among a list of plunder. A few medieval Hebrew mss and the Vulgate read בְגָדִים (vÿgadim, “clothing”), which fits the context much better.
5 tn Heb “and they snatched away for themselves so that there was no carrying away.”
6 tn Heb “and they were three days looting the plunder for it was great.”
7 tn Heb “seeking,” perhaps in the sense of “consulting [an oracle from].”
8 tn Heb “the gods of the people.”
9 tn Heb “hand.”
10 tn Heb “were over the slaughter of.”
11 tn Heb “of everyone not pure to consecrate to the Lord.”
12 tn Heb “his words.”
13 tn All three verbal forms (“mocked,” “despised,” and “ridiculed”) are active participles in the Hebrew text, indicating continual or repeated action. They made a habit of rejecting God’s prophetic messengers.
14 tn Heb “until the anger of the Lord went up against his people until there was no healer.”
