5 tc The MT of v. 18 ends with the words, “all his days.” If this phrase is taken with what precedes, then one should translate, “[who encouraged Israel to sin] throughout his reign.” However, it may be preferable to emend the text to בְיֹמָיו (bÿyomav), “in his days,” and join the phrase to what follows. The translation assumes this change.
6 tn Heb “in the eyes of.”
7 tn Heb “turn away from.”
8 tn Heb “in the eyes of.”
9 tn Heb “turn away from.”
