Context

118:6 The Lord is on my side, 1  I am not afraid!

What can people do to me? 2 

118:7 The Lord is on my side 3  as my helper. 4 

I look in triumph on those who hate me.

1 tn Heb “for me.”

2 tn The rhetorical question assumes the answer, “Nothing!” The imperfect is used in a modal sense here, indicating capability or potential. See Ps 56:11.

3 tn Heb “for me.”

4 tn Heb “among my helpers.” The preposition may indicate identity here, while the plural may be one of majesty or respect.
