yes, during the night I reflect and learn. 4 

Psalms 119:7

Context

119:7 I will give you sincere thanks, 5 

when I learn your just regulations.

Psalms 119:71

Context

119:71 It was good for me to suffer,

so that I might learn your statutes.

1 tn Heb “bless,” that is, “proclaim as worthy of praise.”

2 tn Or “because.”

3 tn Or “counsels, advises.”

4 tn Heb “yes, [during] nights my kidneys instruct [or “correct”] me.” The “kidneys” are viewed here as the seat of the psalmist’s moral character (see Ps 26:2). In the quiet darkness the Lord speaks to his inner being, as it were, and enables him to grow in moral understanding.

5 tn Heb “I will give you thanks with an upright heart.”
