Psalms 109:11

109:11 May the creditor seize all he owns!

May strangers loot his property!

Psalms 68:12

68:12 Kings leading armies run away – they run away!

The lovely lady of the house divides up the loot.


tn Heb “lay snares for” (see Ps 38:12).

tn Heb “the product of his labor.”

tn The verbal repetition draws attention to the statement.

tn The Hebrew form appears to be the construct of נוּה (nuh, “pasture”) but the phrase “pasture of the house” makes no sense here. The translation assumes that the form is an alternative or corruption of נצוה (“beautiful woman”). A reference to a woman would be appropriate in light of v. 11b.
