NETBible

O Lord, how long are you going to just stand there and watch this? 1  Rescue 2  me 3  from their destructive attacks; guard my life 4  from the young lions!

NET Notes

1 tn Heb “O Lord, how long will you see?”

2 tn Heb “bring back, restore.”

3 tn Or “my life.”

4 tn Heb “my only one.” The psalmist may mean that his life is precious, or that he feels isolated and alone (see Ps 22:20). The verb “guard” is supplied in the translation, because the verb “rescue” is understood by ellipsis (see the previous line).
