¹ tn Heb “Should I strike them down? I will strike them down.” In the Hebrew text the first person imperfect form is repeated; the first form has the interrogative he prefixed to it; the second does not. It is likely that the second form should be omitted as dittographic or that the first should be emended to an infinitive absolute.

² tn Heb “my father.” The king addresses the prophet in this way to indicate his respect. See 2 Kgs 2:12.

³ tn Heb “In Jerusalem I will place my name.”
