27:9 Does God listen to his cry
when distress overtakes him?
143:11 O Lord, for the sake of your reputation, 1 revive me! 2
Because of your justice, rescue me from trouble! 3
[143:11] 1 tn Heb “name,” which here stands metonymically for God’s reputation.
[143:11] 2 tn The imperfect verbal forms in vv. 11-12a are understood as expressing the psalmist’s desire. Note the petitionary tone of vv. 7-10a.
[143:11] 3 tn Heb “by your justice bring out my life from trouble.”
