Mazmur 119:6

119:6 Then I would not be ashamed,

if ¹  I were focused on ²  all your commands.

Mazmur 119:128

119:128 For this reason I carefully follow all your precepts. ³ 

I hate all deceitful actions. ⁴ 

[119:6]  ¹ tn Or “when.”

[119:6]  ² tn Heb “I gaze at.”

[119:128]  ³ tn Heb “for this reason all the precepts of everything I regard as right.” The phrase “precepts of everything” is odd. It is preferable to take the kaf (כ) on כֹּל (kol, “everything) with the preceding form as a pronominal suffix, “your precepts,” and the lamed (ל) with the following verb as an emphatic particle. See L. C. Allen, Psalms 101-150 (WBC), 138.

[119:128]  ⁴ tn Heb “every false path.”
