Psalms 119:57

Context

ח (Khet)

119:57 The Lord is my source of security. 3 

I have determined 4  to follow your instructions. 5 

Psalms 119:128

Context

119:128 For this reason I carefully follow all your precepts. 6 

I hate all deceitful actions. 7 

1 tn Heb “all the paths of the Lord are faithful and trustworthy.” The Lord’s “paths” refer here to his characteristic actions.

2 tn Heb “to the ones who keep his covenant and his testimonies.”

3 tn Heb “my portion [is] the Lord.” The psalmist compares the Lord to landed property, which was foundational to economic stability in ancient Israel (see Ps 16:5).

4 tn Heb “I said.”

5 tn Heb “to keep your words” (see v. 9).

6 tn Heb “for this reason all the precepts of everything I regard as right.” The phrase “precepts of everything” is odd. It is preferable to take the kaf (כ) on כֹּל (kol, “everything) with the preceding form as a pronominal suffix, “your precepts,” and the lamed (ל) with the following verb as an emphatic particle. See L. C. Allen, Psalms 101-150 (WBC), 138.

7 tn Heb “every false path.”
