Judges 4:24

4:24 Israel’s power continued to overwhelm ¹  King Jabin of Canaan until they did away with ²  him. ³ 

Judges 9:17

9:17 my father fought for you; he risked his life ⁴  and delivered you from Midian’s power. ⁵

¹ tn Heb “The hand of the Israelites became more and more severe against.”

² tn Heb “cut off.”

³ tn Heb “Jabin king of Canaan.” The proper name and title have been replaced by the pronoun (“he”) in the translation for stylistic reasons.

⁴ tc Heb “threw his life out in front,” that is, “exposed himself to danger.” The MT form מִנֶּגֶד (minneged, “from before”) should probably be read as מִנֶּגְדּוֹ (minnegdo, “from before him”); haplography of vav has likely occurred here in the MT.

⁵ tn Heb “hand.”
