8:1O Lord, our Lord,1
how magnificent2 is your reputation3 throughout the earth!
You reveal your majesty in the heavens above!4
Footnotes
- 1 The plural form of the title emphasizes the Lord’s absolute sovereignty.
- 2 Or “awesome”; or “majestic.”
- 3 Heb “name,” which here stands metonymically for God’s reputation.
- 4 Heb “which, give, your majesty on the heavens.” The verb form תְּנָה (ténah; an imperative?) is corrupt. The form should be emended to a second masculine singular perfect (נָתַתָּה, natatah) or imperfect (תִתֵן, titen) form. The introductory אֲשֶׁר (’asher, “which”) can be taken as a relative pronoun (“you who”) or as a causal conjunction (“because”). One may literally translate, “you who [or “because you”] place your majesty upon the heavens.” For other uses of the phrase “place majesty upon” see Num 27:20 and 1 Chr 29:25.
