  1. 8 The present translation reads with the לְמַלּוּךְ (lémallukh) rather than לִמְלוּכִי (limlukhi) of the Kethib (by dittography) or לִמְלִיכוּ (limlikhu) of the Qere.
  2. 9 Most Hebrew read “Shebaniah” (cf. , , , , ); the present translation follows the reading of some Hebrew , some , and the (cf. Neh 12:3 and , , ).
  3. 10 The present translation reads with the Lucianic Greek recension and the לִמְרֵמוֹת (limremot, cf. , , , “Meremoth”) rather than the reading לִמְרָיוֹת (limrayot, cf. , , , “Meraioth”). Cf. v. 3.
  4. 11 The present translation (along with most English versions) reads with the Qere and the לְעִדּוֹא (lé’iddo’, “Iddo”) rather than the reading לַעֲדָיָא (la’adaya’) which probably arose through graphic confusion. Cf. v. 4.
  5. 12 Or “of Miniamin, …; of Moadiah, Piltai,” where the name of the leader of the family of Miniamin has dropped out of the text due to a problem in transmission.
  6. 13 The present translation reads סַלּוּ (sallu, cf. , , , “Sallu”) rather than the reading סַלַּי (sallai, cf. , , , “Sallai”). Cf. v. 7.
