2 Chronicles 20:25

Context
20:25 Jehoshaphat and his men 1  went to gather the plunder; they found a huge amount of supplies, clothing 2  and valuable items. They carried away everything they could. 3  There was so much plunder, it took them three days to haul it off. 4 

1 tn Or “army.”

2 tc The MT reads פְגָרִים (fÿgarim, “corpses”), but this seems odd among a list of plunder. A few medieval Hebrew mss and the Vulgate read בְגָדִים (vÿgadim, “clothing”), which fits the context much better.

3 tn Heb “and they snatched away for themselves so that there was no carrying away.”

4 tn Heb “and they were three days looting the plunder for it was great.”
