NET © Notes |
1 tn Heb “teach me your way.” The 2 sn The level path refers to God’s moral principles (see the parallel line), which, if followed, will keep the psalmist blameless before his accusers (see v. 12). 3 tn Heb “because of those who watch me [with evil intent].” See also Pss 5:8; 54:5; 56:2. |
