111:7 His acts are characterized by 1 faithfulness and justice;
all his precepts are reliable. 2
111:8 They are forever firm,
and should be faithfully and properly carried out. 3
[111:7] 1 tn Heb “the deeds of his hands [are].”
[111:7] 2 tn That is, fair and for man’s good.
[111:8] 3 tn Heb “done in faithfulness and uprightness.” The passive participle probably has the force of a gerund. See L. C. Allen, Psalms 101-150 (WBC), 89.
