# gave Nebuchadnezzar
|
|
|
|
This refers to Nebuchadnezzar and his soldiers, not only to Nebuchadnezzar. Alternate translation: "gave Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylonia and his soldiers" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-synecdoche]])
|
|
|
|
# he gave him
|
|
|
|
Jehoiakim gave Nebuchadnezzar
|
|
|
|
# He brought ... he placed
|
|
|
|
Although Nebuchadnezzar did not do these things alone, it may easier for the reader to retain the singular pronouns. Alternate translation: "They brought ... they placed" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-synecdoche]])
|
|
|
|
# He brought them
|
|
|
|
Here "them" probably refers to Jehoiakim and other prisoners, as well as the sacred objects.

# in his god's treasury
