1 tn Heb “he”; the referent (the king) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
2 tn Heb “went up and approached and kneeled.”
3 tn Heb “Am I God, killing and restoring life, that this one sends to me to cure a man from his skin disease?” In the Hebrew text this is one lengthy rhetorical question, which has been divided up in the translation for stylistic reasons.
4 tn Heb “Indeed, know and see that he is seeking an occasion with respect to me.”
5 tn Heb “Get up and go, you and your house, and live temporarily where you can live temporarily.”
6 tn Heb “and it so happened [that] they.”
7 tn Heb “and look, they saw.”
8 tn Heb “the man”; the adjective “dead” has been supplied in the translation for clarity.
