2 tn Heb “saying.”

3 tn Heb “to build a house for my name to be there.” Here “name” is used by metonymy for the Lord himself, and thus the expression “to be there” refers to his taking up residence there (hence the translation, “a temple in which to live”). In this case the temple is referred to as a “house” where the Lord himself can reside.

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

5 tn Heb “and the Levites, according to their posts, to praise and to serve opposite the priests according to the matter of a day in its day.”

6 tn Heb “and the gatekeepers by their divisions for a gate and a gate.”

7 tn Heb “for so [was] the command of David the man of God.”

8 tn Heb “to seek the Lord from him.”

9 tn Or “hate.”

10 tn Heb “all his days.”

11 tn The words “his name is” are supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

12 tn Heb “as it is written in the scroll of the law of Moses which the Lord commanded, saying.”

13 tn Heb “on account of sons.”
