20:2 May he send you help from his temple; 1
from Zion may he give you support!
119:117 Support me, so that I will be delivered.
Then I will focus 2 on your statutes continually.
94:18 If I say, “My foot is slipping,”
your loyal love, O Lord, supports me.
1 tc Heb “from [the] temple.” The third masculine singular pronominal suffix (ן, nun) has probably been accidentally omitted by haplography. Note that the following word begins with a prefixed vav (ו). See P. C. Craigie, Psalms 1-50 (WBC), 184.
2 tn Or “and that I might focus.” The two cohortatives with vav (ו) conjunctive indicate purpose/result after the imperative at the beginning of the verse.
