[136:15]  ¹ tn Or “shook off.”

[136:23]  ² tn Heb “who, in our low condition, remembered us.”

[136:25]  ³ tn Heb “to all flesh,” which can refer to all people (see Pss 65:2; 145:21) or more broadly to mankind and animals. Elsewhere the psalms view God as the provider for all living things (see Pss 104:27-28; 145:15).
