94:7 Then they say, “The Lord does not see this;
the God of Jacob does not take notice of it.” 1
94:8 Take notice of this, 2 you ignorant people! 3
You fools, when will you ever understand?
[94:7] 1 tn Heb “does not understand.”
[94:8] 2 tn Heb “understand.” The verb used in v. 7 is repeated here for rhetorical effect. The people referred to here claim God is ignorant of their actions, but the psalmist corrects their faulty viewpoint.
[94:8] 3 tn Heb “[you] brutish among the people.”
