Footnotes

  1. 11 Heb “that they were a stench [i.e., disgusting] with David.”
  2. 12 Heb “the Ammonites.”
  3. 13 Or “Arameans of Beth Rehob and Arameans of Zobah.”
  4. 14 Or perhaps “the men of Tob.” The ancient versions (the , the , and ) understand the name to be “Ish-tob.” It is possible that “Ish” is dittographic and that we should read simply “,” a reading adopted by a number of recent English versions.
