2 Samuel 8:17

New English Translation

¹⁷Zadok son of Ahitub and Ahimelech son of Abiathar^[a] were priests; Seraiah was scribe;

2 Samuel 8:17 tc Here Ahimelech is called “the son of Abiathar,” but NCV, CEV, and REB reverse this to conform with 1 Sam 22:20. Most recent English versions (e.g., NAB, NASB, NIV, NRSV, NLT) retain the order found in the MT.
