Psalms 40:9

Context

40:9 I have told the great assembly 1  about your justice. 2 

Look! I spare no words! 3 

O Lord, you know this is true.

1 sn The great assembly is also mentioned in Pss 22:25 and 35:18.

2 tn Heb “I proclaim justice in the great assembly.” Though “justice” appears without a pronoun here, the Lord’s just acts are in view (see v. 10). His “justice” (צֶדֶק, tsedeq) is here the deliverance that originates in his justice; he protects and vindicates the one whose cause is just.

3 tn Heb “Look! My lips I do not restrain.”
