Mazmur 76:1

Psalm 76 ⁶ 

For the music director; to be accompanied by stringed instruments; a psalm of Asaph, a song.

76:1 God has revealed himself in Judah; ⁷ 

in Israel his reputation ⁸  is great.

Mazmur 145:21

145:21 My mouth will praise the Lord. ⁹ 

Let all who live ¹⁰  praise his holy name forever!

Mazmur 113:2

113:2 May the Lord’s name be praised

now and forevermore!

[69:36]  ¹ tn Heb “the lovers of his name.” The phrase refers to those who are loyal to God (cf. v. 35). See Pss 5:11; 119:132; Isa 56:6.

[69:36]  ² sn Verses 35-36 appear to be an addition to the psalm from the time of the exile. The earlier lament reflects an individual’s situation, while these verses seem to reflect a communal application of it.

[72:19]  ³ tn Heb “[be] blessed.”

[72:19]  ⁴ tn Or “glory.”

[72:19]  ⁵ tn Heb “surely and surely” (אָמֵן וְאָמֵן [’amen vÿ’amen], i.e., “Amen and amen”). This is probably a congregational response of agreement to the immediately preceding statement about the propriety of praising God.

[76:1]  ⁶ sn Psalm 76. The psalmist depicts God as a mighty warrior who destroys Israel’s enemies.

[76:1]  ⁷ tn Or “God is known in Judah.”

[76:1]  ⁸ tn Heb “name,” which here stands metonymically for God’s reputation.

[145:21]  ⁹ tn Heb “the praise of the Lord my mouth will speak.”

[145:21]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “all flesh.”
