Psalms 31:21

Context

31:21 The Lord deserves praise¹

for he demonstrated his amazing faithfulness to me when I was besieged by enemies.²

Psalms 33:18

Context

33:18 Look, the Lord takes notice of his loyal followers,³

those who wait for him to demonstrate his faithfulness⁴

¹tn Heb “blessed [be] the Lord.”

²tn Heb “for he caused his faithfulness to be amazing to me in a besieged city.” The psalmist probably speaks figuratively here. He compares his crisis to being trapped in a besieged city, but the Lord answered his prayer for help. Verses 19-24 were apparently written after the Lord answered the prayer of vv. 1-18.

³tn Heb “look, the eye of the Lord [is] toward the ones who fear him.” The expression “the eye…[is] toward” here indicates recognition and the bestowing of favor. See Ps 34:15. The one who fears the Lord respects his sovereignty and obeys his commandments. See Ps 128:1; Prov 14:2.

⁴tn Heb “for the ones who wait for his faithfulness.”
