Nehemiah 9:22

1 tn Or “queen,” so most English versions (cf. HALOT 1415 s.v. שֵׁגַל); TEV “empress.”

2 tn Heb “It was good before the king and he sent me.”

3 tn The words “of the land” are not in the Hebrew text, but are supplied in the translation for clarity.

4 tc Most Hebrew MSS read “the land of Sihon and the land of the king of Heshbon.” The present translation (along with NAB, NASB, NIV, NCV, NRSV, CEV, NLT) follows the reading of one Hebrew MS, the LXX, and the Vulgate.

5 tn On the usage of this Hebrew word see HALOT 478-79 s.v. כְּלִי.
