NETBible

By day the Lord decrees his loyal love,¹ and by night he gives me a song,² a prayer³ to the living God.

NET Notes

¹sn The psalmist believes that the Lord has not abandoned him, but continues to extend his loyal love. To this point in the psalm, the author has used the name “God,” but now, as he mentions the divine characteristic of loyal love, he switches to the more personal divine name Yahweh (rendered in the translation as “the Lord”).

²tn Heb “his song [is] with me.”

³tc A few medieval Hebrew mss read תְּהִלָּה (tÿhillah, “praise”) instead of תְּפִלָּה (tÿfillah, “prayer”).
