Mazmur 89:24

89:24 He will experience my faithfulness and loyal love, ⁵ 

and by my name he will win victories. ⁶ 

[63:4]  ¹ tn Or perhaps “then.”

[63:4]  ² sn I will lift up my hands. Lifting up one’s hands toward God was a gesture of prayer (see Ps 28:2; Lam 2:19) or respect (Ps 119:48).

[80:18]  ³ tn Heb “and in your name we will call.”

[89:12]  ⁴ sn Tabor and Hermon were two of the most prominent mountains in Palestine.

[89:24]  ⁵ tn Heb “and my faithfulness and my loyal love [will be] with him.”

[89:24]  ⁶ tn Heb “and by my name his horn will be lifted up.” The horn of an ox underlies the metaphor (see Deut 33:17; 1 Kgs 22:11; Ps 92:10). The horn of the wild ox is frequently a metaphor for military strength; the idiom “exalt/lift up the horn” signifies military victory (see 1 Sam 2:10; Pss 75:10; 92:10; Lam 2:17).
