74:4 Your enemies roar 1 in the middle of your sanctuary; 2
they set up their battle flags. 3
1 tn This verb is often used of a lion’s roar, so the psalmist may be comparing the enemy to a raging, devouring lion.
2 tn Heb “your meeting place.”
3 tn Heb “they set up their banners [as] banners.” The Hebrew noun אוֹת (’ot, “sign”) here refers to the enemy army’s battle flags and banners (see Num 2:12).
