Psalms 112:8
Context112:8 His resolve 4 is firm; he will not succumb to fear
before he looks in triumph on his enemies.
1 tn Heb “[the] daughter of a king.”
2 tn Heb “[is] completely glorious.”
3 tc Heb “within, from settings of gold, her clothing.” The Hebrew term פְּנִימָה (pÿnimah, “within”), if retained, would go with the preceding line and perhaps refer to the bride being “within” the palace or her bridal chamber (cf. NIV, NRSV). Since the next two lines refer to her attire (see also v. 9b), it is preferable to emend the form to פְּנִינִיהָּ (“her pearls”) or to פְּנִינִים (“pearls”). The mem (מ) prefixed to “settings” is probably dittographic.
4 tn Heb “his heart,” viewed here as the seat of the volition.
