Psalms 119:73

י (Yod)

119:73 Your hands made me and formed me. ¹ 

Give me understanding so that I might learn ²  your commands.

Isaiah 43:7

43:7 everyone who belongs to me, ³ 

whom I created for my glory,

whom I formed – yes, whom I made!

[119:73]  ¹ tn Heb “made me and established me.” The two verbs also appear together in Deut 32:6, where God, compared to a father, is said to have “made and established” Israel.

[119:73]  ² tn The cohortative verbal form with vav (ו) conjunctive indicates purpose/result after the preceding imperative.

[43:7]  ³ tn Heb “everyone who is called by my name” (so NASB, NIV, NRSV).
