119:101 I stay away 1 from the evil path,
so that I might keep your instructions. 2
119:104 Your precepts give me discernment.
Therefore I hate all deceitful actions. 3
119:128 For this reason I carefully follow all your precepts. 4
I hate all deceitful actions. 5
1 tn Heb “I hold back my feet.”
2 tn Heb “your word.” Many medieval Hebrew
3 tn Heb “every false path.”
4 tn Heb “for this reason all the precepts of everything I regard as right.” The phrase “precepts of everything” is odd. It is preferable to take the kaf (כ) on כֹּל (kol, “everything) with the preceding form as a pronominal suffix, “your precepts,” and the lamed (ל) with the following verb as an emphatic particle. See L. C. Allen, Psalms 101-150 (WBC), 138.
5 tn Heb “every false path.”
