Psalms 37:30

37:30 The godly speak wise words

and promote justice.

Psalms 63:6

63:6 whenever I remember you on my bed,

and think about you during the nighttime hours.


tn Heb “The mouth of the godly [one] utters wisdom, and his tongue speaks justice.” The singular form is used in a representative sense; the typical godly individual is in view. The imperfect verbal forms draw attention to the characteristic behavior of the godly.

tn The Hebrew term אִם (’im) is used here in the sense of “when; whenever,” as in Ps 78:34.
