Footnotes

  1. 18 Heb “[the] animals on a thousand hills.” The words “that graze” are supplied in the translation for clarification. The term בְּהֵמוֹה (béhemot, “animal”) refers here to cattle (see Ps 104:14).
  2. 19 Heb “I know.”
  3. 20 The precise referent of the Hebrew word, which occurs only here and in Ps 80:13, is uncertain. Aramaic, Arabic and Akkadian cognates refer to insects, such as locusts or crickets.
