20:3 May he take notice 1 of your offerings;
may he accept 2 your burnt sacrifice! (Selah)
119:108 O Lord, please accept the freewill offerings of my praise! 3
Teach me your regulations!
141:2 May you accept my prayer like incense,
my uplifted hands like the evening offering! 4
1 tn Or “remember.” For other examples of the verb זָכַר (zakhar) carrying the nuance “take notice of,” see Pss 8:4 and 9:12.
2 tc Heb “consider as fat.” The verbal form should probably be emended to יְדַשְּׁנֶהָ (yÿdashÿneha), the final he (ה) being understood as a third feminine singular pronominal suffix referring back to the feminine noun “burnt sacrifice.”
3 tn Heb “of my mouth.”
4 tn Heb “may my prayer be established [like] incense before you, the uplifting of my hands [like] an evening offering.”
