2 Samuel 15:7-9
A.M. 2983. B.C. 1021. An. Ex. Is. 470. forty years.As David reigned in the whole only forty years, this reading is evidently corrupt, though supported by the commonly printed Vulgate, LXX., and Chaldee. But the Syriac, Arabic, Josephus, Theodoret, the Sixtine edition of the Vulgate, and several MSS. of the same version, read four years; and it is highly probable that {arbâim,} forty, is an error for {arbâ,} four, though not supported by any Hebrew MS. yet discovered. Two of those collated by Dr. Kennicott, however, have {yom,} "day," instead of {shanah,} "year," i.e., forty days instead of forty years; but this is not sufficient to outweigh the other authorities. 13:38; 1Sa 16:1,13let me go.13:24-27pay.1Sa 16:2; Pr 21:27; Isa 58:4; Mt 2:8; 23:14 thy servant.Ge 28:20,21; 1Sa 1:11; 16:2; Ps 56:12; Ec 5:4Geshur.13:37,38; 14:23,32I will serve.Jos 24:15; Isa 28:15; Jer 9:3-5; 42:20 91 Kings 21:9-10

It is no unusual thing for a word to have opposite senses. Ex 22:28; Le 24:15; Mt 26:59-66; Joh 10:33; Ac 6:13John 18:28
