Psalms 14:7

14:7 I wish the deliverance ¹  of Israel would come from Zion!

When the Lord restores the well-being of his people, ² 

may Jacob rejoice, ³ 

may Israel be happy! ⁴ 

Psalms 106:47

106:47 Deliver us, O Lord, our God!

Gather us from among the nations!

Then we will give thanks ⁵  to your holy name,

and boast about your praiseworthy deeds. ⁶ 

Isaiah 59:20

59:20 “A protector ⁷  comes to Zion,

to those in Jacob who repent of their rebellious deeds,” ⁸  says the Lord.

[14:7]  ¹ sn The deliverance of Israel. This refers metonymically to God, the one who lives in Zion and provides deliverance for Israel.

[14:7]  ² tn Heb “turns with a turning [toward] his people.” The Hebrew term שְׁבוּת (shÿvut) is apparently a cognate accusative of שׁוּב (shuv).

[14:7]  ³ tn The verb form is jussive.

[14:7]  ⁴ tn Because the parallel verb is jussive, this verb, which is ambiguous in form, should be taken as a jussive as well.

[106:47]  ⁵ tn Heb “to give thanks.” The infinitive construct indicates result after the imperative.

[106:47]  ⁶ tn Heb “to boast in your praise.”

[59:20]  ⁷ tn Or “redeemer.” See the note at 41:14.

[59:20]  ⁸ tn Heb “and to those who turn from rebellion in Jacob.”
