8 tc Heb “do not turn away the face of your anointed ones.” Many medieval Hebrew mss, as well as the ancient versions, read the singular, “your anointed,” which would probably refer to Solomon specifically, rather than the people.

9 tn Heb “and all the kings of the earth were seeking the face of Solomon to hear his wisdom which God had placed in his heart.”

10 tn Heb “Judah.”

11 tn Heb “them”; the referent (the men of Judah) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

20 tn Heb “and he was with them in the house of God hiding.”

21 tn Heb “and the doers of the work worked, and the repairs went up for the work by their hand.”

22 tn Heb “and they caused the house of God to stand according to its measurements and they strengthened it.”

23 tn The words “in his campaigns” are supplied in the translation for clarity and for stylistic reasons
