  1. #2Samuel 20:25 names David's scribe, but every witness spells the name differently:
    MT-K שיא
    MT-Q שְׁוָ֖א
    OG Σουσὰ
    Pesh ܫܪܝܐ
    Vulg Siva

    #1Kings 4:3 names Solomon's scribes' father slightly more consistently:
    MT שִׁישָׁ֖א
    OG Σαβὰ
    Pesh ܫܝܫܐ
    Vulg Sisa

    Could this be the same name?
