NET Notes |
1 tn Or “take possession of.” 2 tn Heb “and their arm did not save them.” The “arm” here symbolizes military strength. 3 tn Heb “your right hand.” The 4 tn Heb “your arm.” 5 tn Heb “light of your face.” The idiom “light of your face” probably refers to a smile (see Eccl 8:1), which in turn suggests favor and blessing (see Num 6:25; Pss 4:6; 31:16; 67:1; 80:3, 7, 19; 89:15; Dan 9:17). 6 tn Or “favorable toward.” |
