[78:39]  ¹ tn The prefixed verbal form with vav (ו) consecutive signals a return to the narrative.

[78:39]  ² tn Heb “and he remembered that they [were] flesh, a wind [that] goes and does not return.”

[94:15]  ³ tn Heb “for judgment will return to justice.”

[94:15]  ⁴ tn Heb “all the pure of heart.” The “heart” is here viewed as the seat of one’s moral character and motives. The “pure of heart” are God’s faithful followers who trust in and love the Lord and, as a result, experience his deliverance (see Pss 7:10; 11:2; 32:11; 36:10; 64:10; 97:11).
