119:115 Turn away from me, you evil men,
so that I can observe 1 the commands of my God. 2
1 tn The cohortative verbal form with vav (ו) conjunctive indicates purpose/result after the preceding imperative.
2 tn The psalmist has already declared that he observes God’s commands despite persecution, so here the idea must be “so that I might observe the commands of my God unhindered by threats.”
