1 tn Heb “they”; the referent (the four victorious kings, see v. 9) has been supplied in the translation for clarity.

2 tn Heb “gave…into the hand of.”

3 tn Heb “and they said to him.” In context this is best understood as an exclamation.

4 tn The infinitive absolute is used for emphasis before the finite verbal form.

5 tn Heb “in the beginning” (see the note on the phrase “last time” in v. 18).

6 tn Heb “and he controlled himself and said.”

7 tc Heb “from Asher,” but the initial mem (מ) of the MT should probably be moved to the end of the preceding verse and taken as a plural ending on “heel.”

8 tn The Hebrew word translated “rich,” when applied to products of the ground, means abundant in quantity and quality.

9 tn The word translated “delicacies” refers to foods that were delightful, the kind fit for a king.
