2. Formal Translation And two men, commanders of raiding bands, were with the son of Saul—one was named Baanah and the other Rechab, sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, from the sons of Benjamin—for even Beeroth is counted among Benjamin. |
2. Dynamic Translation Now Saul’s son had two officers of raiding groups: one was Baanah and the other Rechab. They were sons of Rimmon the Beerothite from the tribe of Benjamin, since Beeroth is considered part of Benjamin. |
