Ezra 2:24

the men of the family ¹  of Azmaveth: 42;

of Azmaveth 42

the sons of Azmaveth, 42;

The people of Beth–azmaveth, 42.

Azmaveth, 42

The children of Azmaveth, forty-two.

The descendants of Azmaveth, forty-two.

the people of Azmaveth, forty–two;

the men of the family ¹  of Azmaveth: 42;

¹ tc The translation follows the suggestion in BHS and reads אַשְׁנֵי בֵּית (’ashne bet, “men of the house of”) here rather than the reading בְּנֵי (bÿne, “the sons of”) found in the MT.

tn Heb “the men of the house of Azmaveth”; some regard בֵּית (bet, “house of”) as a part of the place name: NAB, NLT “Beth-azmaveth.”
