2 Chronicles 34:26

To enquire of the Lord. — Strictly, through the Lord. Kings has the accusative.

Against this place. — Kings adds, “that it should become an astonishment and a curse.”

And humbledst thyself before me. — Not in Kings. A characteristic repetition.

And weep. — Shorter form of the verb; a correction of Kings (wattçbk for wattebkeh).

I. — Emphatic. (Kings has the longer form ‘anokî for our ‘anî.)

Saith the Lord. — Is the utterance of Jehovah (ne’ûm Iahweh).

Grave. — Heb., graves. (Comp. 2 Chronicles 16:14.)

And upon the inhabitants of the same. — Added by the chronicler.
