Psalms 122:8

Context

122:8 For the sake of my brothers and my neighbors

I will say, “May there be peace in you!”

1 tn Heb “for they do not speak peace.”

2 tn Heb “but against the quiet ones of the land words of deceit they plan.” The imperfect verbal forms in v. 20 highlight their characteristic behavior.

3 tn Or “upright.”

4 tn Heb “for [there is] an end for a man of peace.” Some interpret אַחֲרִית (’akharit, “end”) as referring to offspring (see the next verse and Ps 109:13; cf. NEB, NRSV).

5 tn Heb “sprout up,” like crops. This verse continues the metaphor of rain utilized in v. 6.

6 tn Heb “and [there will be an] abundance of peace until there is no more moon.”
