Mazmur 94:9

94:9 Does the one who makes the human ear not hear?

Does the one who forms the human eye not see? ¹ 

Mazmur 94:20

94:20 Cruel rulers ²  are not your allies,

those who make oppressive laws. ³ 

[94:9]  ¹ tn Heb “The one who plants an ear, does he not hear? The one who forms an eye, does he not see?”

[94:20]  ² tn Heb “a throne of destruction.” “Throne” stands here by metonymy for rulers who occupy thrones.

[94:20]  ³ tn Heb “Is a throne of destruction united to you, one that forms trouble upon a statute?” The rhetorical question anticipates the answer, “Of course not!” The translation, while not preserving the interrogative form of the statement, reflects its rhetorical force.
