1 tn Heb “you word.”

2 tn Or “be firm, established.”

3 tn Heb “they could not be seen outside.”

4 tn Heb “Indeed, can God really live with mankind on the earth?” The rhetorical question expects the answer, “Of course not,” the force of which is reflected in the translation “God does not really live with mankind on the earth.”

5 tn The present translation understands כִּי (ki) in an emphatic or asseverative sense (“Certainly”). Other translation have “indeed” (NASB), “when” (NRSV), “so” (NEB), or leave the word untranslated (NIV).

6 tn Heb “the good way in which they should walk.”

7 tn Or “for an inheritance.”

8 tn Heb “I have heard.”

9 tn Heb “temple of sacrifice.” This means the Lord designated the temple as the place for making sacrifices, and this has been clarified in the translation.

10 tn Heb “for his thing is from me.”

11 tn Heb “and they heard the words of the Lord and returned from going against Jeroboam.”

12 tn Heb “the word of the Lord came to Shemaiah, saying.”

13 tn Heb “and I will give to them soon deliverance.”

14 tn Or “gush forth upon.”

15 tn Heb “by the hand of.”

16 tn Heb “the kingdom of the Lord by the hand of the sons of David.”

17 tn Or “horde”; or “multitude.”

18 tn Heb “and priests serving the Lord [are] the sons of Aaron and the Levites in the work.”

19 tn Heb “[May there be] a covenant between me and you [as there was] between my father and your father.”

20 tn Heb “so he will go up from upon me.”

21 tn Heb “he”; the referent (the Lord) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

22 tn The Hebrew text has two imperfects connected by וְגַם (vÿgam). These verbs could be translated as specific futures, “you will deceive and also you will prevail,” in which case the Lord is assuring the spirit of success on his mission. However, in a commissioning context (note the following imperatives) such as this, it is more likely that the imperfects are injunctive, in which case one could translate, “Deceive, and also overpower.”

23 tn Heb “when.”

24 tn Heb “to go to Tarshish.”

25 tn Heb “he”; the referent (Jehoram) has been specified in the translation for clarity and for stylistic reasons.

26 tn Heb “Because you…” In the Hebrew text this lengthy sentence is completed in vv. 14-15. Because of its length and complexity (and the tendency of contemporary English to use shorter sentences), the translation has divided it up into several English sentences.

27 tn Heb “walked in the ways.”

28 tn Heb “in the ways of.”

29 tn Heb “he did what was proper in the eyes of the Lord, according to all which Uzziah his father had done.”

30 tn Heb “except he did not enter the house of the Lord.”

31 tn Heb “filled your hand.”

32 tn Or “tokens of thanks.”

33 tn Heb “and all who were willing of heart.”

34 tn Heb “Therefore, behold, I am gathering you to your fathers, and you will be gathered to your tomb in peace.”
