Footnotes
- Psalm 130:7 tn Heb “for with the Lord [is] loyal love.”
- Psalm 130:7 tn Heb “and abundantly with him [is] redemption.”
- Psalm 130:8 tn Or “redeem.”
- Psalm 130:8 tn Or “all the consequences of their sins.” The Hebrew noun עָוֹן (ʿavon) can refer to sin, the guilt sin produces, or the consequences of sin. Only here is the noun collocated with the verb פָּדָה (padah, “to redeem; to deliver”). The psalmist may refer to deliverance from the national consequences of sin or forgiveness per se (v. 4). See L. C. Allen, Psalms 101-150 (WBC), 192.
