Psalms 19:13

Context

19:13 Moreover, keep me from committing flagrant 1  sins;

do not allow such sins to control me. 2 

Then I will be blameless,

and innocent of blatant 3  rebellion.

Psalms 101:6

Context

101:6 I will favor the honest people of the land, 4 

and allow them to live with me. 5 

Those who walk in the way of integrity will attend me. 6 

Psalms 140:8

Context

140:8 O Lord, do not let the wicked have their way! 7 

Do not allow their 8  plan to succeed when they attack! 9  (Selah)

1 tn Or “presumptuous.”

2 tn Heb “let them not rule over me.”

3 tn Heb “great.”

4 tn Heb “my eyes [are] on the faithful of the land.”

5 tn The Hebrew text simply reads, “in order to live with me.”

6 tn Heb “one who walks in the way of integrity, he will minister to me.”

7 tn Heb “do not grant the desires of the wicked.”

8 tn Heb “his.” The singular is used in a representative sense (see v. 1).

9 tn Heb “his plot do not promote, they rise up.” The translation understands the final verb as being an unmarked temporal clause. Another option is to revocalize the verb as a Hiphil and take the verb with the next verse, “those who surround me lift up [their] head,” which could refer to their proud attitude as they anticipate victory (see Ps 27:6).
