Psalms 9:7

9:7 But the Lord 1  rules 2  forever;

he reigns in a just manner. 3 

Psalms 25:6

25:6 Remember 4  your compassionate and faithful deeds, O Lord,

for you have always acted in this manner. 5 

1 tn The construction vav (ו) + subject highlights the contrast between the exalted Lord and his defeated foes (see v. 6).

2 tn Heb “sits” (i.e., enthroned, see v. 4). The imperfect verbal form highlights the generalization.

3 tn Heb “he establishes for justice his throne.”

4 tn That is, “remember” with the intention of repeating.

5 tn Heb “for from antiquity [are] they.”
