2 tn Heb “Is a throne of destruction united to you, one that forms trouble upon a statute?” The rhetorical question anticipates the answer, “Of course not!” The translation, while not preserving the interrogative form of the statement, reflects its rhetorical force.
3 tn Or “redeem me.”
4 tn The cohortative verbal form with vav (ו) conjunctive indicates purpose/result after the preceding imperative.
