2 Samuel 22:49

22:49 He delivers me from my enemies; 1 

you snatch me away 2  from those who attack me; 3 

you rescue me from violent men.

1 tn Heb “and [the one who] brings me out from my enemies.”

2 tn Heb “you lift me up.” In light of the preceding and following references to deliverance, the verb רוּם (rum) probably here refers to being rescued from danger (see Ps 9:13). However, it could mean “exalt; elevate” here, indicating that the Lord has given him victory over his enemies and forced them to acknowledge the psalmist’s superiority.

3 tn Heb “from those who rise against me.”
