[90:15]  ¹ tn Heb “have seen.”

[97:12]  ² tn Heb “to his holy remembrance.” The Hebrew noun זָכַר (zakhar, “remembrance”) here refers to the name of the Lord as invoked in liturgy and praise. Cf. Pss 6:5; 30:4. The Lord’s “name” is “holy” in the sense that it is a reminder of his uniqueness and greatness.

[104:34]  ³ tn That is, the psalmist’s thoughts as expressed in his songs of praise.

[119:74]  ⁴ tn Heb “those who fear you will see me and rejoice.”
