Footnotes
*Mashiach* (מְשִׁיחֶ֑ךָ) — 'Your anointed one' — refers immediately to Solomon as YHWH's reigning king, but its deployment here plants a seed the prophetic tradition harvests fully: the Messiah, the ultimate Anointed One from David's line. *Chasadei David* (חַסְדֵי דָוִד) — 'the covenant-mercies of David' — is the phrase Isaiah takes up in 55:3 ('the sure mercies of David') and which Paul applies to the resurrection of Yeshua in Acts 13:34, arguing that these mercies find their eternal fulfilment in One whom death could not hold. The Chronicler ends Solomon's prayer not with achievement but with appeal — the Temple's legitimacy rests entirely on YHWH's covenant fidelity to David. FOG retains *Mashiach* and *chasadei Dawid* to preserve the full messianic resonance; FOG Message renders them accessibly while honouring the covenantal depth.
