[107:9]  ¹ tn Heb “[the] longing throat.” The noun נֶפֶשׁ (nefesh), which frequently refers to one’s very being or soul, here probably refers to one’s parched “throat” (note the parallelism with נֶפֱשׁ רְעֵבָה, nefesh rÿ’evah, “hungry throat”).

[107:9]  ² tn Heb “and [the] hungry throat he has filled [with] good.”

[119:72]  ³ tn Heb “better to me [is] the law of your mouth than thousands of gold and silver.”

[119:122]  ⁴ tn Heb “be surety for your servant for good.”
