Footnotes

  1. 32 The pronoun “you” refers to the Lord, who is addressed here. The quotation that follows further develops the announcement of vv. 3–4.
  2. 33 Many medieval read the singular here, “your faithful follower.” In this case the statement refers directly to Nathan’s oracle to David (see 2 Sam 7:17).
  3. 34 Heb “I have placed help upon a warrior.”
  4. 35 Or perhaps “a chosen one.”
