1 tn Heb “and the people who were encamped heard.”
2 tn Heb “has conspired against and also has struck down the king.”
3 tn Heb “When he heard this word.”
4 tn Heb “in the temporary shelters.” This is probably referring to tents.
5 tn The noun translated “small flocks” occurs only here. The common interpretation derives the word from the verbal root חשׂף, “to strip off; to make bare.” In this case the noun refers to something “stripped off” or “made bare.” HALOT 359 s.v. II חשׂף derives the noun from a proposed homonymic verbal root (which occurs only in Ps 29:9) meaning “cause a premature birth.” In this case the derived noun could refer to goats that are undersized because they are born prematurely.
