Psalms 35:6

Context

35:6 May their path be 1  dark and slippery,

as the Lord’s angel chases them!

Psalms 73:18

Context

73:18 Surely 2  you put them in slippery places;

you bring them down 3  to ruin.

1 tn The prefixed verbal form is distinctly jussive, indicating this is a prayer.

2 tn The use of the Hebrew term אַךְ (’akh, “surely”) here literarily counteracts its use in v. 13. The repetition draws attention to the contrast between the two statements, the first of which expresses the psalmist’s earlier despair and the second his newly discovered confidence.

3 tn Heb “cause them to fall.”
