Psalms 119:174

Context

119:174 I long for your deliverance, O Lord;

I find delight in your law.

Psalms 119:156

Context

119:156 Your compassion is great, O Lord.

Revive me, as you typically do! 1 

Psalms 119:113

Context

ס (Samek)

119:113 I hate people with divided loyalties, 2 

but I love your law.

1 tn Heb “according to your customs.”

2 tn Heb “divided ones.” The word occurs only here; it appears to be derived from a verbal root, attested in Arabic, meaning “to split” (see HALOT 762 s.v. *סֵעֵף). Since the psalmist is emphasizing his unswerving allegiance to God and his law, the term probably refers to those who lack such loyalty. The translation is similar to that suggested by L. C. Allen, Psalms 101-150 (WBC), 131.
