| (0.35) | (Dan 2:34) | 2 tc The LXX, Theodotion, and the Vulgate have “from a mountain,” though this is probably a harmonization with v. 45. |

| (0.35) | (Eze 23:42) | 4 tn Heb “they”; the referents (the sisters) have been specified in the translation for the sake of clarity. |
| (0.35) | (Eze 11:16) | 1 tn Or “have been partially a sanctuary”; others take this as temporal (cf. NASB, NIV, NRSV “a little while”). |
| (0.35) | (Eze 11:7) | 4 tc Many of the versions have “I will bring you out” (active) rather than “he brought out” (the reading of MT). |

| (0.35) | (Lam 3:52) | 2 tn The construction צוֹד צָדוּנִי (tsod tsaduni, “they have hunted me down”) with the paronomastic infinitive absolute is emphatic. |
| (0.35) | (Lam 2:9) | 1 tn Heb “have sunk down.” This expression, “her gates have sunk down into the ground,” is a personification picturing the city gates descending into the earth as if going down into the grave or the netherworld. Most English versions render it literally (KJV, RSV, NRSV, NASB, NIV, NJPS); however, a few paraphrases have captured the equivalent sense quite well: “Zion’s gates have fallen facedown on the ground” (CEV), and “the gates are buried in rubble” (TEV). |

| (0.35) | (Jer 43:10) | 5 tn The Greek version reads the verbs in this sentence as third person (“he will set”) and second person (“you have buried”). This fits the context better, but it is difficult to explain how the Hebrew could have arisen from this smoother reading. The figure of substitution (metonymy of cause for effect) is probably involved: “I will have him set” and “I have had you bury.” The effect of these substitutions is to emphasize the sovereignty of God. |
