De 12:10,11; De 20:4; Jos 10:42; Jos 22:4; Jos 23:1; Jud 6:12-14; 1Sa 25:28; 2Sa 5:19,20; 2Sa 7:1; 1Ch 22:9; 1Ch 23:25; Ps 44:1-5; Ac 9:31; Ro 8:31

¹ tn The words “he told them” are added in the translation for clarity and for stylistic reasons.

² tn In the Hebrew text the statement is phrased as a rhetorical question, “Is not the Lord your God with you?” The question anticipates the response, “Of course he is!” Thus in the translation the positive statement “The Lord your God is with you!” has been used.

³ tn Heb “and he gives rest to you all around.”

⁴ tn Or “earth.”

⁵ tn Or “earth.”
