#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?

Old Testament reading: 1 Kings 19:9b-21
We explore the powerful story of Elijah in 1 Kings 19. Our discussion highlights Elijah's despair, the Lord's presence in a whisper, and the calling of Elisha. Witness a pivotal moment of faith and divine purpose. #Elijah #OldTestament #BibleStudy #1Kings #Christianity #Scripture #Faith #DivineCalling #Elisha #ReligiousEducation

Now the advisers of the king of Syria said to him: “Their God is a god of the mountains. That’s why they overpowered us. But if we fight them in the plains, we will certainly overpower them. 1 Kings 20.23 NET.
