1 tn Heb “Did I speak a word?” In the Hebrew text the statement is phrased as a rhetorical question.
2 tn Heb “tribes” (so KJV, NASB, NCV), but the parallel passage in 1 Chr 17:6 has “judges.”
3 tn Heb “whom I commanded to shepherd” (so NIV, NRSV).
4 tn Heb “plant.”
5 tn Heb “shaken.”
6 tn Heb “the sons of violence.”
7 tn Heb “and you must send by their hand to me every word which you hear.” Both of the second person verb forms are plural with Zadok, Abiathar, and Hushai being the understood subjects.
