141:1 O Lord, I cry out to you. Come quickly to me!

Pay attention to me when I cry out to you!

[26:3]  ¹ tn Heb “for your faithfulness [is] before my eyes.”

[26:3]  ² tn Heb “and I walk about in your loyalty.”

[26:3]  sn The psalmist’s awareness of the Lord’s faithfulness and…loyalty toward him motivates him to remain loyal to the Lord and to maintain his moral purity.

[63:2]  ³ tn The Hebrew particle כֵּן (ken) is used here to stress the following affirmation (see Josh 2:4).

[63:2]  ⁴ tn The perfect verbal form is understood here as referring to a past experience which the psalmist desires to be repeated. Another option is to take the perfect as indicating the psalmist’s certitude that he will again stand in God’s presence in the sanctuary. In this case one can translate, “I will see you.”

[63:2]  ⁵ tn Heb “seeing.” The preposition with the infinitive construct here indicates an accompanying circumstance.

[35:28]  ⁶ tn Heb “and my tongue will proclaim your justice.”

[35:28]  ⁷ tn Heb “all the day your praise.” The verb “proclaim” is understood by ellipsis in the second line (see the previous line).
