Footnotes

1. Psalm 37:6 tn Heb “and he will bring out like light your vindication, and your just cause like noonday.”
2. Psalm 37:7 tn Heb “Be quiet before the Lord!”
3. Psalm 37:7 tc The Hebrew text has וְהִתְחוֹלֵל (v^ehitkholel, Hitpolel of חִיל, khil, “writhe with fear, suffer”) but this idea fits awkwardly here. The text should be changed to וְתוֹחֵל (v^etokhel; Hiphil of יָחַל, yakhal, “wait”). It appears that the Hebrew text is the product of dittography: (1) the initial וה (vav-he) is accidentally repeated from the preceding word (יְהוָה, y^ehvah) and (2) the final ל (lamed) is accidentally repeated (note the preceding lamed and the initial lamed on the following form, לו).
4. Psalm 37:7 tn Heb “over one who causes his way to be successful.”
5. Psalm 37:8 tn Heb “Refrain from anger! Abandon rage!”
