[26:11]  1 tn Heb “and I in my integrity walk.” The psalmist uses the imperfect verbal form to emphasize this is his practice. The construction at the beginning of the verse (conjunction + pronoun) highlights the contrast between the psalmist and the sinners mentioned in vv. 9-10.

[26:11]  2 tn Or “redeem me.”

[27:7]  3 tn Heb “my voice.”

[37:26]  5 tn The active participles describe characteristic behavior.

[37:26]  6 tn Or “offspring”; Heb “seed.”

[119:29]  7 tn The “path of deceit” refers to a lifestyle characterized by deceit and disloyalty to God. It stands in contrast to the “way of faithfulness” in v. 30.

[119:29]  8 tn Heb “be gracious to me.” The verb is used metonymically here for “graciously giving” the law. (See Gen 33:5, where Jacob uses this verb in describing how God had graciously given him children.)

[119:58]  9 tn Heb “I appease your face.”

[119:58]  10 tn Heb “according to your word.”

[119:132]  11 tn Heb “according to custom toward the lovers of your name.” The “lovers of” God’s “name” are the Lord’s loyal followers. See Pss 5:11; 69:36; Isa 56:6.
