| NET © Notes |
1 tn Heb “acts”; NASB, NRSV “has done it”; NLT “has done this wondrous thing.” 2 tn Heb “lower regions.” This refers to Sheol and forms a merism with “sky” in the previous line. See Pss 63:9; 71:20. 3 tn Heb “O forest and all the trees in it”; NASB, NRSV “and every tree in it.” 4 tn Heb “redeems.” See the note at 41:14. 5 tn That is, by delivering Israel. Cf. NCV “showed his glory when he saved Israel”; TEV “has shown his greatness by saving his people Israel.” |
