1 tn Heb “and the king, Rehoboam, strengthened himself in Jerusalem and ruled.”

2 tn Heb “Rehoboam.” The recurrence of the proper name here is redundant in terms of contemporary English style, so the pronoun has been used in the translation instead.

3 tn Heb “the city where the Lord chose to place his name from all the tribes of Israel.”

4 tn Heb “his”; the referent has been specified in the translation for clarity.

5 tn Or “an angel.”

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

7 tn Heb “and he returned with shame of face to his land.”

8 tn Heb “and some from those who went out from him, from his inward parts.”

9 tn Heb “In this house and in Jerusalem, which I chose from all the tribes of Israel, I will place my name permanently” (or perhaps “forever”).
