2 Kings 4:13

Context
4:13 Elisha said to Gehazi, 1  “Tell her, ‘Look, you have treated us with such great respect. 2  What can I do for you? Can I put in a good word for you with the king or the commander of the army?’” She replied, “I’m quite secure.” 3 

2 Kings 11:14

Context
11:14 Then she saw 4  the king standing by the pillar, according to custom. The officers stood beside the king with their trumpets and all the people of the land were celebrating and blowing trumpets. Athaliah tore her clothes and screamed, “Treason, treason!” 5 

1 tn Heb “he said to him.”

2 tn Heb “you have turned trembling to us with all this trembling.” The exaggerated language is probably idiomatic. The point seems to be that she has taken great pains or gone out of her way to be kind to them. Her concern was a sign of her respect for the prophetic office.

3 tn Heb “Among my people I am living.” This answer suggests that she has security within the context of her family.

4 tn Heb “and she saw, and look.”

5 tn Or “conspiracy, conspiracy.”
