Psalms 16:8

Context

16:8 I constantly trust in the Lord; 1 

because he is at my right hand, I will not be upended.

Psalms 109:15

Context

109:15 May the Lord be constantly aware of them, 2 

and cut off the memory of his children 3  from the earth!

1 tn Heb “I set the Lord before me continually.” This may mean that the psalmist is aware of the Lord’s presence and sensitive to his moral guidance (see v. 7), or that he trusts in the Lord’s protection (see the following line).

2 tn Heb “may they [that is, the sins mentioned in v. 14] be before the Lord continually.”

3 tn Heb “their memory.” The plural pronominal suffix probably refers back to the children mentioned in v. 13, and for clarity this has been specified in the translation.
