NETBible

NET Notes

¹tn The word translated “swallow” occurs only here and in Prov 26:2.

²tn Heb “even a bird finds a home, and a swallow a nest for herself, [in] which she places her young.”

²sn The psalmist here romanticizes the temple as a place of refuge and safety. As he thinks of the birds nesting near its roof, he envisions them finding protection in God’s presence.
