[72:9]  1 tn Or “islands.” The term here refers metonymically to those people who dwell in these regions.

[72:9]  2 sn As they bow down before him, it will appear that his enemies are licking the dust.

[113:7]  3 sn The language of v. 7 is almost identical to that of 1 Sam 2:8.

[119:25]  5 tn Heb “my soul clings to the dirt.” The Hebrew term נֶפֶשׁ (nefesh, “being; soul”) with a pronominal suffix is often equivalent to a pronoun, especially in poetry (see BDB 660 s.v. נֶפֶשׁ 4.a).

[119:25]  6 tn Heb “according to your word.” Many medieval Hebrew mss read the plural “your words.”
