2 Samuel 16:2

16:2 The king asked Ziba, “Why did you bring these things?”¹ Ziba replied, “The donkeys are for the king’s family to ride on, the loaves of bread² and the summer fruit are for the attendants to eat, and the wine is for those who get exhausted in the desert.”³

2 Samuel 20:21

Context
20:21 That’s not the way things are. There is a man from the hill country of Ephraim named Sheba son of Bicri. He has rebelled⁴ against King David. Give me just this one man, and I will leave the city.” The woman said to Joab, “This very minute⁵ his head will be thrown over the wall to you!”

¹tn Heb “What are these to you?”

²tc The translation follows the Qere and many medieval Hebrew mss in reading וְהַלֶּחֶם (vÿhallekhem, “and the bread”) rather than וּלְהַלֶּחֶם (ulÿhallekhem, “and to the bread”) of the Kethib. The syntax of the MT is confused here by the needless repetition of the preposition, probably taken from the preceding word.

³tn The Hebrew text adds “to drink.”

⁴tn Heb “lifted his hand.”

⁵tn Heb “Look!”
