Pietersma, Albert, and Benjamin G. Wright, eds. A New English Translation of the Septuagint (Primary Texts). New York; Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2007 uses the notation of 1 Reigns, 2 Reigns, 3 Reigns, and 4 Reigns as is common in LXX based Old Testaments.

1 Reigns is treated as I would expect - as are 3 Reigns and 4 Reigns:

However, for 2 Reigns Logos shows an amazing ability to make sure the user will never learn any standards or predictability - one should logically expect 2 Kingdoms 1:1.

Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."
