hope this helps!

I belive the slight differences might be with scribal errors!

P.S. I suggest that you get ah Paul to revise these translations.

Akhay,

I am currently being challenged by a Moslem from Indonesia on the following verses. Can somebody help me with verses either from the Peshitta or Septaguint?

2 Samuel 24:1 vs 1 Chronicles 21:1 Who instructed David to do the cencus? YHWH or Satan?

2 Samuel 10:18 vs 1 Chronicles 19:18 How many horses? 700 or 7000 horses? Soldiers on horses or soldiers by foot?

Shlama!
