[6:3]  1 tn Heb “my being is very terrified.” The suffixed form of נֶפֶשׁ (nefesh, “being”) is often equivalent to a pronoun in poetic texts.

[6:3]  2 tn Heb “and you, Lord, how long?” The suffering psalmist speaks in broken syntax. He addresses God, but then simply cries out with a brief, but poignant, question: How long will this (= his suffering) continue?

[86:15]  3 tn Heb “slow to anger.”

[86:15]  4 tn Heb “and great of loyal love and faithfulness.”

[102:26]  5 tn Heb “stand.”

[102:26]  6 tn The Hebrew verb חָלַף (khalaf) occurs twice in this line, once in the Hiphil (“you will remove them”) and once in the Qal (“they will disappear”). The repetition draws attention to the statement.

[109:21]  7 tn Heb “but you, Lord, Master, do with me for the sake of your name.” Here “name” stands metonymically for God’s reputation.

[145:15]  9 tn Heb “the eyes of all wait for you.”

[145:15]  10 tn Heb “and you give to them their food in its season” (see Ps 104:27).
