| NET © Notes |
1 tn Heb “O Lord, how long will you see?” 2 tn Heb “bring back, restore.” 3 tn Or “my life.” 4 tn Heb “my only one.” The psalmist may mean that his life is precious, or that he feels isolated and alone (see Ps 22:20). The verb “guard” is supplied in the translation, because the verb “rescue” is understood by ellipsis (see the previous line). |
