2 tn Heb “in your strength.” The translation interprets the pronominal suffix as subjective, rather than merely descriptive (or attributive).
3 tn Heb “and in your deliverance, how greatly he rejoices.”
4 tn Heb “in your strength,” but English idiom does not require the pronoun.
5 tn Heb “sing praise.”
