1 tn Heb “paths.”

2 sn Psalm 19. The psalmist praises God for his self-revelation in the heavens and in the Mosaic law. The psalmist concludes with a prayer, asking the Lord to keep him from sinning and to approve of his thoughts and words.

3 sn God’s glory refers here to his royal majesty and power.

4 tn Heb “and the work of his hands the sky declares.” The participles emphasize the ongoing testimony of the heavens/sky.

5 tn In this context “fear” probably means “to demonstrate respect for the Lord’s power and authority by worshiping him and obeying his commandments.” See Ps 33:8. Some interpreters, with the support of the LXX, prefer to read וְיַאֲרִיךְ (vÿaarikh, “and he [the king in this case] will prolong [days]”), that is, “will live a long time” (cf. NIV, NRSV).

6 tn God is the addressee (see vv. 1-2).

7 tn Heb “with [the] sun, and before [the] moon [for] a generation, generations.” The rare expression דּוֹר דּוֹרִים (dor dorim, “generation, generations”) occurs only here, in Ps 102:24, and in Isa 51:8.

8 tn Heb “sprout up,” like crops. This verse continues the metaphor of rain utilized in v. 6.

9 tn Heb “and [there will be an] abundance of peace until there is no more moon.”

10 tn Heb “the one who covers.”

11 tn Heb “hills.”

12 sn Psalm 150. The Psalter concludes with a resounding call for praise from everything that has breath.

13 tn Heb “the sky of his strength.”
