[90:14]  ¹ sn Morning is used metaphorically for a time of renewed joy after affliction (see Pss 30:5; 46:5; 49:14; 59:16; 143:8).

[90:14]  ² tn After the imperative (see the preceding line) the cohortatives with the prefixed conjunction indicate purpose/result.

[91:16]  ³ tn Heb “length of days.”

[58:10]  ⁴ tn Heb “if you.” See the note on “you must” in v. 9b.

[58:10]  ⁵ tn Heb “If you furnish for the hungry [with] your being, and the appetite of the oppressed you satisfy.”

[58:10]  ⁶ tn Heb “will rise in the darkness.”

[58:10]  ⁷ tn Heb “and your darkness [will be] like noonday.”

[58:11]  ⁸ tn Heb “he will satisfy in parched regions your appetite.”

[58:11]  ⁹ tn Heb “and your bones he will strengthen.”

[5:6]  ¹⁰ sn Those who hunger are people like the poor Jesus has already mentioned. The term has OT roots both in conjunction with the poor (Isa 32:6-7; 58:6-7, 9-10; Ezek 18:7, 16) or by itself (Ps 37:16-19; 107:9).

[4:12]  ¹¹ tn The words “of contentment” are not in the Greek text, but are implied by Paul’s remarks at the end of v. 11.

[4:1]  ¹² tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:12.

[4:8]  ¹³ tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:12.

[1:6]  ¹⁴ tn Grk “since I am sure of this very thing.” The verse begins with an adverbial participle that is dependent on the main verb in v. 3 (“I thank”). Paul here gives one reason for his thankfulness.

[1:6]  ¹⁵ tn The referent is clearly God from the overall context of the paragraph and the mention of “the day of Christ Jesus” at the end, which would be redundant if Christ were referred to here.

[1:6]  ¹⁶ tn Or “among.”

[1:6]  ¹⁷ tn The word “it” is not in the Greek text but has been supplied. Direct objects were frequently omitted in Greek when clear from the context.

[1:7]  ¹⁸ tn Grk “Just as.” The sense here is probably, “So I give thanks (v. 3) just as it is right for me…”

[1:7]  ¹⁹ tn Or possibly “because you have me in your heart.”

[1:7]  ²⁰ tn Grk “in my bonds.” The meaning “imprisonment” derives from a figurative extension of the literal meaning (“bonds,” “fetters,” “chains”), L&N 37.115.

[1:7]  ²¹ tn The word “God’s” is supplied from the context (v. 2) to clarify the meaning.

[13:5]  ²² sn A quotation from Deut 31:6, 8.

[13:6]  ²³ tc Some important mss (א* C* P 0285^vid 33 1175 1739 pc lat) lack καί (kai), but because the omission conforms to the wording of Ps 118:6 (117:6 LXX), it is suspect.

[13:6]  ²⁴ sn A quotation from Ps 118:6.
