Mazmur 78:11

78:11 They forgot what he had done, ¹ 

the amazing things he had shown them.

Mazmur 78:42

78:42 They did not remember what he had done, ² 

how he delivered them from the enemy, ³ 

Mazmur 106:7

106:7 Our ancestors in Egypt failed to appreciate your miraculous deeds,

they failed to remember your many acts of loyal love,

and they rebelled at the sea, by the Red Sea. ⁴ 

[78:11]  ¹ tn Heb “his deeds.”

[78:42]  ² tn Heb “his hand,” symbolizing his saving activity and strength, as the next line makes clear.

[78:42]  ³ tn Heb “[the] day [in] which he ransomed them from [the] enemy.”

[106:7]  ⁴ tn Heb “Reed Sea” (also in vv. 9, 22). “Reed Sea” (or “Sea of Reeds”) is a more accurate rendering of the Hebrew expression יָם סוּף (yam suf), traditionally translated “Red Sea.” See the note on the term “Red Sea” in Exod 13:18.

[106:7]  sn They rebelled. The psalmist recalls the people’s complaint recorded in Exod 14:12.
