Psalms 37:38

Context

37:38 Sinful rebels are totally destroyed; 1 

evil men have no future. 2 

Psalms 119:3

Context

119:3 who, moreover, do no wrong,

but follow in his footsteps. 3 

1 tn Or “destroyed together.” In this case the psalmist pictures judgment sweeping them away as a group.

2 tn Heb “the end of evil men is cut off.” As in v. 37, some interpret אַחֲרִית (’akharit, “end”) as referring to offspring (see Ps 109:13). The perfect verbal forms in v. 38 probably express general truths. Another option is that they are used emphatically to state with certitude that the demise of the wicked is as good as done.

3 tn Heb “walk in his ways.”
