71:23 My lips will shout for joy! Yes, 1 I will sing your praises!
I will praise you when you rescue me! 2
1 tn Or “when.” The translation assumes that כִּי (ki) has an emphasizing (asseverative) function here.
2 tn Heb “and my life [or “soul”] which you will have redeemed.” The perfect verbal form functions here as a future perfect. The psalmist anticipates praising God, for God will have rescued him by that time.
