  1. 43 A “faithful follower” (חָסִיד, khasid) is one who does what is right in God’s eyes and remains faithful to God (see Pss 4:3; 12:1; 16:10; 31:23; 37:28; 86:2; 97:10).
  2. 44 The participial forms in the second and third lines characterize the Lord as one who typically protects the faithful and judges the proud.
