Context

10:16 When all Israel saw that the king refused to listen to them, the people answered the king, “We have no portion in David – no share in the son of Jesse! 3  Return to your homes, O Israel! 4  Now, look after your own dynasty, O David!” 5  So all Israel returned to their homes. 6 

1 tn Or “soul.”

2 tn Heb “your name.” The word “name” sometimes refers to one’s reputation or honor (thus the translation here, “your honor).

4 tn Heb “each one to your tents, Israel.” The word “return” is supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

5 tn Heb “Now see your house, David.”

6 tn Heb “went to their tents.”
