Psalms 119:160
Context119:160 Your instructions are totally reliable;

1 tn Heb “I will give you thanks with an upright heart.”
2 tn The psalmist uses an imperfect verbal form to emphasize that this is his continuing practice.
3 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.
4 tn Heb “every false path.”
5 tn Heb “the head of your word is truth, and forever [is] all your just regulation.” The term “head” is used here of the “sum total” of God’s instructions.
