Psalms 118:23

This is the Lord’s work. We consider it amazing! ¹ 

Job 5:9; Ac 2:32-36; Ac 3:14,15; Ac 4:13; Ac 5:31,32; Ac 13:41; Eph 1:19-22

¹ tn Heb “it is amazing in our eyes.” The use of the plural pronoun here and in vv. 24-27 suggests that the psalmist may be speaking for the entire nation. However, it is more likely that vv. 22-27 are the people’s response to the psalmist’s thanksgiving song (see especially v. 26). They rejoice with him because his deliverance on the battlefield (see vv. 10-12) had national repercussions.
