Psalms 64:4

Context

64:4 in order to shoot down the innocent 1  in secluded places.

They shoot at him suddenly and are unafraid of retaliation. 2 

Psalms 102:20

Context

102:20 in order to hear the painful cries of the prisoners,

and to set free those condemned to die, 3 

1 tn The psalmist uses the singular because he is referring to himself here as representative of a larger group.

2 tn Heb “and are unafraid.” The words “of retaliation” are supplied in the translation for clarification.

3 tn Heb “the sons of death.” The phrase “sons of death” (see also Ps 79:11) is idiomatic for those condemned to die.
