Mazmur 71:1

Psalm 71 ¹ 

71:1 In you, O Lord, I have taken shelter!

Never let me be humiliated!

Mazmur 93:2

93:2 Your throne has been secure from ancient times;

you have always been king. ² 

Mazmur 103:16

103:16 but when the hot wind ³  blows by, it disappears,

and one can no longer even spot the place where it once grew.

[71:1]  ¹ sn Psalm 71. The psalmist prays for divine intervention and expresses his confidence that God will protect and vindicate him. The first three verses are very similar to Ps 31:1-3a.

[93:2]  ² tn Heb “from antiquity [are] you.” As the context suggests, this refers specifically to God’s royal position, not his personal existence.

[103:16]  ³ tn Heb “[the] wind.” The word “hot” is supplied in the translation for clarification.
