Psalms 18:33

Context

18:33 He gives me the agility of a deer; 1 

he enables me to negotiate the rugged terrain. 2 

1 tn Heb “[the one who] makes my feet like [those of ] a deer.”

2 tn Heb “and on my high places he makes me walk.” The imperfect verbal form emphasizes God’s characteristic provision. The psalmist compares his agility in battle to the ability of a deer to negotiate rugged, high terrain without falling or being injured.

sn Habakkuk uses similar language to describe his faith during difficult times. See Hab 3:19.
