145:3 The Lord is great and certainly worthy of praise!

No one can fathom his greatness! ⁶ 

[18:3]  ¹ tn In this song of thanksgiving, where the psalmist recalls how the Lord delivered him, the prefixed verbal form is best understood as a preterite indicating past tense, not an imperfect.

[18:3]  ² tn Heb “worthy of praise, I cried out [to] the Lord.” Some take מְהֻלָּל (mÿhullal, “worthy of praise”) with what precedes and translate, “the praiseworthy one,” or “praiseworthy.” However, the various epithets in vv. 1-2 have the first person pronominal suffix, unlike מְהֻלָּל. If one follows the traditional verse division and takes מְהֻלָּל with what follows, it is best understood as substantival and as appositional to יְהוָה (yÿhvah): “[to the] praiseworthy one I cried out, [to the] Lord.”

[89:7]  ³ tn Heb “feared.”

[89:7]  ⁴ tn Heb “in the great assembly of the holy ones.”

[89:7]  ⁵ tn Or perhaps “feared by.”

[145:3]  ⁶ tn Heb “and concerning his greatness there is no searching.”
