Psalms 73:18

Context

73:18 Surely 1  you put them in slippery places;

you bring them down 2  to ruin.

Psalms 74:16

Context

74:16 You established the cycle of day and night; 3 

you put the moon 4  and sun in place. 5 

Psalms 105:21

Context

105:21 He put him in charge of his palace, 6 

and made him manager of all his property,

1 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.

2 tn Heb “cause them to fall.”

3 tn Heb “To you [is] day, also to you [is] night.”

4 tn Heb “[the] light.” Following the reference to “day and night” and in combination with “sun,” it is likely that the Hebrew term מָאוֹר (maor, “light”) refers here to the moon.

5 tn Heb “you established [the] light and [the] sun.”

6 tn Heb “he made him master of his house.”
