NET Notes |
1 tn Heb “may they be embarrassed and ashamed, the ones seeking my life.” Ps 40:14 has “together” after “ashamed,” and “to snatch it away” after “my life.” 2 tn The four prefixed verbal forms in this verse are understood as jussives. The psalmist is calling judgment down on his enemies. 2 sn See Ps 35:4 for a similar prayer. |
