[20:2]  ¹ tc Heb “from [the] temple.” The third masculine singular pronominal suffix (ן, nun) has probably been accidentally omitted by haplography. Note that the following word begins with a prefixed vav (ו). See P. C. Craigie, Psalms 1-50 (WBC), 184.

[33:20]  ³ tn Or “[source of] help.”

[33:20]  ⁴ tn Or “protector.”

[115:9]  ³ tn Or “[source of] help.”

[115:9]  ⁴ tn Heb “and their shield.”

[121:2]  ⁵ tn Or “Maker.”
