[115:10]  ¹ tn Heb “house.”

[115:10]  ² tn Or “[source of] help.”

[115:10]  ³ tn Heb “and their shield.”

[118:3]  ⁴ tn Heb “house.”

[115:12]  ⁵ tn Or “remembers us.”

[115:12]  ⁶ tn Another option is to translate the prefixed form of the verb “bless” in vv. 12-13 as a jussive, “may he bless” (see v. 14).

[115:12]  ⁷ tn Heb “house.”

[135:19]  ⁸ tn Heb “house” (here and in the next two lines).

[133:2]  ⁹ tn Heb “[it is] like the good oil on the head, going down on the beard.”

[133:2]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “which goes down in accordance with his measured things.” The Hebrew phrase מִדּוֹתָיו (middotayv, “his measured things”) refers here to the robes worn by Aaron.
