Psalms 21:2

Context

21:2 You grant 1  him his heart’s desire;

you do not refuse his request. 2  (Selah)

Psalms 59:15

Context

59:15 They wander around looking for something to eat;

they refuse to sleep until they are full. 3 

1 tn The translation assumes the perfect verbal forms in v. 2 are generalizing, stating factually what God typically does for the king. Another option is to take them as present perfects, “you have granted…you have not refused.” See v. 4, which mentions a specific request for a long reign.

2 tn Heb “and the request of his lips you do not refuse.”

3 tn Heb “if they are not full, they stay through the night.”
