1 tn Heb “saying.”

2 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”).

3 tn Heb “there will not be cut off from you a man from before me sitting on the throne of Israel.”

4 tn Heb “guard their way by walking in my law as you have walked before me.”

5 tn Heb “and you walked in the way of the kings of Israel and caused Judah and the residents of Jerusalem to commit adultery, like the house of Ahab causes to commit adultery.”

6 tn Heb “the house of your father.”

7 tn Heb “and they caused to stand a word to cause a voice to pass through.”

8 tn The words “summoning the people” are supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

9 tn Heb “because not for abundance had they done as written.”

10 tn Heb “the runners.”

11 tn Heb “and according to the command of the king, saying.”

12 tn The jussive with vav conjunctive indicates purpose/result after the preceding imperative.

13 tn Heb “to the survivors who are left to you from the palm of the kings of Assyria.”

14 tn Or “seers.”

15 tn Heb “look, they are.”
