Psalms 90:8

90:8 You are aware of our sins; ¹ 

you even know about our hidden sins. ² 

Psalms 74:16

74:16 You established the cycle of day and night; ³ 

you put the moon ⁴  and sun in place. ⁵ 

[90:8]  ¹ tn Heb “you set our sins in front of you.”

[90:8]  ² tn Heb “what we have hidden to the light of your face.” God’s face is compared to a light or lamp that exposes the darkness around it.

[74:16]  ³ tn Heb “To you [is] day, also to you [is] night.”

[74:16]  ⁴ tn Heb “[the] light.” Following the reference to “day and night” and in combination with “sun,” it is likely that the Hebrew term מָאוֹר (ma’or, “light”) refers here to the moon.

[74:16]  ⁵ tn Heb “you established [the] light and [the] sun.”
