2 Samuel 1:22

Context

1:22 From the blood of the slain, from the fat of warriors,

the bow of Jonathan was not turned away.

The sword of Saul never returned 1  empty.

2 Samuel 22:49

Context

22:49 He delivers me from my enemies; 2 

you snatch me away 3  from those who attack me; 4 

you rescue me from violent men.

1 tn The Hebrew imperfect verbal form is used here to indicate repeated past action.

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

3 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.

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