1 tn Heb “the food on his table.”
2 tn Heb “the seating of his servants and the standing of his attendants.”
3 tc The Hebrew text has here, “and his upper room [by] which he was going up to the house of the Lord.” But עֲלִיָּתוֹ (’aliyyato, “his upper room”) should be emended to עֹלָתוֹ, (’olato, “his burnt sacrifice[s]”). See the parallel account in 1 Kgs 10:5.
4 tn Or “it took her breath away”; Heb “there was no breath still in her.”
5 tn Heb “and Asa did the good and the right in the eyes of the Lord his God.”
