Psalms 109:13

Context

109:13 May his descendants 5  be cut off! 6 

May the memory of them be wiped out by the time the next generation arrives! 7 

1 tn Heb “in order that they might know, a following generation, sons [who] will be born, they will arise and will tell to their sons.”

2 tn The prefixed verbal form is either a preterite or an imperfect. If the latter, it emphasizes the ongoing nature of the condition in the past. The translation reflects this interpretation of the verbal form.

3 tn Heb “a people, wanderers of heart [are] they.”

4 tn Heb “and they do not know my ways.” In this context the Lord’s “ways” are his commands, viewed as a pathway from which his people, likened to wayward sheep (see v. 7), wander.

5 tn Or “offspring.”

6 sn On the expression cut off see Ps 37:28.

7 tn Heb “in another generation may their name be wiped out.”
