David Sings to the Lord

22:1 ⁹ David sang ¹⁰  to the Lord the words of this song when ¹¹  the Lord rescued him from the power ¹²  of all his enemies, including Saul. ¹³ 

2 Samuel 24:12

24:12 “Go, tell David, ‘This is what the Lord says: I am offering you three forms of judgment. Pick one of them and I will carry it out against you.’”

[6:7]  ¹ tn Heb “and the anger of the Lord burned against Uzzah.”

[6:7]  ² tn Heb “God.”

[6:7]  ³ tc Heb “there.” Since this same term occurs later in the verse it is translated “on the spot” here for stylistic reasons.

[6:7]  ⁴ tc The phrase “his negligence” is absent from the LXX.

[6:8]  ⁵ tn Heb “because the Lord broke out [with] a breaking out [i.e., an outburst] against Uzzah.”

[6:8]  ⁶ sn The name Perez Uzzah means in Hebrew “the outburst [against] Uzzah.”

[11:3]  ⁹ tn Heb “he”; the referent (the messenger) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[17:22]  ¹³ tn The word “River” is not in the Hebrew text here or in v. 24, but has been supplied in the translation for clarity.

[22:1]  ¹⁷ sn In this long song of thanks, David affirms that God is his faithful protector. He recalls in highly poetic fashion how God intervened in awesome power and delivered him from death. His experience demonstrates that God vindicates those who are blameless and remain loyal to him. True to his promises, God gives the king victory on the battlefield and enables him to subdue nations. A parallel version of the song appears in Ps 18.

[22:1]  ¹⁸ tn Heb “spoke.”

[22:1]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “in the day,” or “at the time.”

[22:1]  ²⁰ tn Heb “hand.”

[22:1]  ²¹ tn Heb “and from the hand of Saul.”
