Psalms 78:59

Context

78:59 God heard and was angry;

he completely rejected Israel.

Psalms 103:9

Context

103:9 He does not always accuse,

and does not stay angry. 1 

1 tn The Hebrew verb נָטַר (natar) is usually taken to mean “to keep; to guard,” with “anger” being understood by ellipsis. The idiom “to guard anger” is then understood to mean “to remain angry” (see Lev 19:18; Jer 3:5, 12; Nah 1:2). However, it is possible that this is a homonymic root meaning “to be angry” (see HALOT 695 s.v. נטר).
