Footnotes

  1. 28 Heb “it is amazing in our eyes.” The use of the plural pronoun here and in vv. 24–27 suggests that the psalmist may be speaking for the entire nation. However, it is more likely that vv. 22–27 are the people’s response to the psalmist’s thanksgiving song (see especially v. 26). They rejoice with him because his deliverance on the battlefield (see vv. 10–12) had national repercussions.
