Mazmur 92:8-10

92:8 But you, O Lord, reign ¹  forever!

92:9 Indeed, ²  look at your enemies, O Lord!

Indeed, ³  look at how your enemies perish!

All the evildoers are scattered!

92:10 You exalt my horn like that of a wild ox. ⁴ 

I am covered ⁵  with fresh oil.

[92:8]  ¹ tn Heb “[are elevated] on high.”

[92:9]  ² tn Or “for.”

[92:9]  ³ tn Or “for.”

[92:10]  ⁴ sn The horn of the wild ox is frequently a metaphor for military strength; the idiom “to exalt/lift up the horn” signifies military victory (see 1 Sam 2:10; Pss 75:10; 89:24; Lam 2:17).

[92:10]  ⁵ tn The Hebrew verb בָּלַל (balal) usually has the nuance “to mix.” Here it seems to mean “to smear” or “to anoint.” Some emend the form to בַּלֹּתַנִי (ballotaniy; a second person form of the verb with a first person suffix) and read, “you anoint me.”
