Psalms 17:6-7

17:6 I call to you for you will answer me, O God.

Listen to me! ¹ 

Hear what I say! ² 

17:7 Accomplish awesome, faithful deeds, ³ 

you who powerfully deliver those who look to you for protection from their enemies. ⁴ 

[17:6]  ¹ tn Heb “Turn your ear toward me.”

[17:6]  ² tn Heb “my word.”

[17:7]  ³ tn Heb “Set apart faithful acts.”

[17:7]  ⁴ tn Heb “[O] one who delivers those who seek shelter from the ones raising themselves up, by your right hand.” The Lord’s “right hand” here symbolizes his power to protect and deliver.
