Footnotes

  1. 16 Or “remembers us.”
  2. 17 Another option is to translate the prefixed form of the verb “bless” in vv. 12–13 as a jussive, “may he bless” (see v. 14).
  3. 18 Heb “house.”
  4. 19 Heb “the fearers of the Lord.”
  5. 20 Heb “the small along with the great.” The translation assumes that “small” and “great” here refer to age (see 2 Chr 15:13). Another option is to translate “both the insignificant and the prominent” (see Job 3:19; cf. “high and low alike”).
