Psalm 22:17–18

tn The imperfect verbal forms in vv. 17–18 draw attention to the progressive nature of the action.

tn Heb “they.” The masculine form indicates the enemies are in view. The referent (the psalmist’s enemies) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

tn Heb “they gaze, they look upon me.”

tn Heb “casting lots.” The precise way in which this would have been done is not certain.
