2 Kings 4:43-44
4:43 But his attendant said, “How can I feed a hundred men with this?” 1 He replied, “Set it before the people so they may eat, for this is what the Lord says, ‘They will eat and have some left over.’” 2
4:44 So he set it before them; they ate and had some left over, just as the Lord predicted. 3
1 tn Heb “How can I set this before a hundred men?”
2 tn The verb forms are infinitives absolute (Heb “eating and leaving over”) and have to be translated in light of the context.
3 tn Heb “according to the word of the Lord.”
