[119:25]  ¹ 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]  ² tn Heb “according to your word.” Many medieval Hebrew mss read the plural “your words.”

[119:37]  ³ tn Heb “Make my eyes pass by from looking at what is worthless.”

[119:37]  ⁴ tn Heb “by your word.”

[119:40]  ⁵ tn Or “righteousness.”

[119:88]  ⁶ tn Heb “according to.”

[119:88]  ⁷ tn The cohortative verbal form with vav (ו) conjunctive indicates purpose/result after the preceding imperative.

[119:88]  ⁸ tn Heb “of your mouth.”

[119:107]  ⁹ tn Heb “according to your word.”

[138:7]  ¹⁰ tn Or “distress.”

[138:7]  ¹¹ tn Heb “against the anger of my enemies you extend your hand.”

[3:2]  ¹² tn Heb “your report,” that is, “the report concerning you.”

[3:2]  ¹³ tn Heb “I fear.” Some prefer to read, “I saw, Lord, what you accomplished” (cf. NEB).

[3:2]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “your work.”

[3:2]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “in the midst of years.” The meaning of the phrase, which occurs only here in the OT, is uncertain (cf. NIV “in our day”; NEB, NASB “in the midst of the years”).

[3:2]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “revive it” (i.e., “your work”).

[3:2]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “make known.” The implied object is “your deeds”; the pronoun “them,” referring to “deeds” in the previous line, was employed in the translation to avoid redundancy. The suffix on the form חַיֵּיהוּ (khayyehu, “revive it”) does double duty in the parallelism.

[3:2]  ¹⁸ tn Heb “in turmoil remember [to show] compassion.”

[2:5]  ¹⁹ tn Or “by grace you have been saved.” The perfect tense in Greek connotes both completed action (“you have been saved”) and continuing results (“you are saved”).
