Psalm 6/Expanded Paraphrase

Build Expanded Paraphrase

Click within the CBC to insert an expansion. A textbox will appear. Type in (or copy into) the textbox and push ESC to cancel or ENTER to save.

Alternatively, you may edit the CBC/insertions alternation directly at Data/6/expanded-paraphrase.json for a final draft. If you're viewing a paraphrase from the wiki, save it as a draft and then modify.

If there is an extra space between two parts...

, you'll need to modify the json file directly. For example, to enable plots:

	{
		"verse": "1",
		"cbc": "plot",
		"Index": 6,
		"suppressFollowingSpace": true
	},
	{
		"verse": "1",
		"insertion": "s",
		"WordsBefore": 6,
		"Index": 7
	},

If a Google discourse sheet exists...

You may import the Expanded Paraphrase from the sheet by following these instructions.

Prepare the discourse sheet

1. Open the Discourse Google sheet for this Psalm.
2. Go to the tab named "Public-Text" (which is likely already made). If it doesn't exist, follow these instructions (you'll need it all by the end of this).

Prepare

To enable this, you must:

1. Open the Discourse Google sheet for this Psalm.
2. Add a new tab named "Public-Text" (the name isn't actually critical)
3. Use as the formula in the top-left cell: ='Discourse Master Sheet'!A:A (or whatever the appropriate code is to select the first column of the master sheet).
4. Drag the formula over to Column C and down as far as needed to get all the rows.
5. File > Share > Publish to Web
6. Instead of Entire Document, choose sheet Public-Text
7. Instead of Web Page, choose Tab-separated values.
8. Copy the link starting from after /d/e until before the &single, e.g. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vTeE2dD9gc2v4rckm23VfBCDdpuLirI3DOxLQE10a2UHWl3puz8wPPCJ2wgBftP4VYqadCPb2pWOUwi/pub?gid=168152279&single=true&output=tsv
9. Edit the base Psalm page, e.g. Psalm 19
10. Add the DiscourseSheet property like this:

{{ResourceSite
|DiscourseSheet=2PACX-1vTeE2dD9gc2v4rckm23VfBCDdpuLirI3DOxLQE10a2UHWl3puz8wPPCJ2wgBftP4VYqadCPb2pWOUwi/pub?gid=168152279
|Banner Image=Psalm 19 banner image.jpg

1. In D2, type "Expanded Paraphrase" as the new header. (This, like the one below, will be used by code to ensure this is what is intended.)
2. In E2, type "Expanded Paraphrase as JSON" as the new header.

Get the spreadsheet ID

1. Now you'll need to save the Google spreadsheet ID. This will be used to generate the JSON within the Google environment. (The Google sheet URL, which is likely already stored, will be used to extract the JSON into the Resource Site.)
2. From the URL, copy the link starting from after /d until before the /edit?, e.g. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/6Ni8QMdjRtxVFj_eAcSD6kgnWmoNTLMZy0zvykIT8ku0/edit?gid=702646086#gid=702646086

Save the spreadsheet ID

(This step can be skipped if you'll only ever manuallly populate this; this goal permits us to bulk populate all discourse spreadsheets.)

1. Edit the base Psalm page, e.g. Psalm 69
2. Add the DiscourseSheetID property like this:

{{ResourceSite
|DiscourseSheetID=6Ni8QMdjRtxVFj_eAcSD6kgnWmoNTLMZy0zvykIT8ku0
|DiscourseSheet=2PACX-6vS309bCf4RkDjHEczGiDnZtOACqV94-DLwI_bYlzt5hugBM25ddPLVwaRETsZ9SyB46-7SpcGm3U8bX/pub?gid=702646086
}}

Populate the Public-Text sheet

1. Actually extract the bold & italics from the main sheet into the Public-Text sheet. This involves running an Apps Script. First open this: https://script.google.com/u/0/home/projects/67TAMP6KpcaMTXBf5qS0C-mflnt-6srgJTWns6bLRD_l6eNSj9zy4Bxzc/edit.
2. Now add your discourse sheet id to the end of the list of spreadsheetIDs at the top, remembering to enclose it in double quotation marks and ensuring everything is comma-delimited.
3. At the top of the page, ensure "extractBoldFromMultipleSpreadsheets" is in the menu bar.
4. Click Run.
5. If the Execution Log at the bottom of the page doesn't show "Execution started" and then "Execution completed" then ask Elizabeth for help...

Extract the Public-Text sheet to the Resource Site

Follow the above instructions and refresh the page. The Discourse Sheet properties have not yet been set.

Use the Save current draft button at the bottom of the page to save.

Text (Hebrew)	Verse	Expanded Paraphrase
לַמְנַצֵּ֣חַ בִּ֭נְגִינוֹת עַֽל־הַשְּׁמִינִ֗ית מִזְמ֥וֹר לְדָוִֽד׃	1	For the director, with stringed instruments, on the octave. A psalm by David.
יְֽהוָ֗ה אַל־בְּאַפְּךָ֥ תוֹכִיחֵ֑נִי וְֽאַל־בַּחֲמָתְךָ֥ תְיַסְּרֵֽנִי׃	2	YHWH, you are my father and I, the king, am your son. I have sinned against you, and you have become angry, and you have begun to discipline me as a father disciplines his son . I accept your fatherly discipline, but I only ask that you do not correct me in your anger lest I die, and do not discipline me in your wrath.
חָנֵּ֥נִי יְהוָה֮ כִּ֤י אֻמְלַ֫ל אָ֥נִי רְפָאֵ֥נִי יְהוָ֑ה כִּ֖י נִבְהֲל֣וּ עֲצָמָֽי׃	3	Instead of anger Have mercy on me, YHWH, for I am languishing due to the sickness which you have brought on me as discipline for my sin, sickness being a common punishment for sin. Heal me, YHWH, for my bones have become dismayed. My sickness has brought me near death, and the nearness of death has made be deeply afraid and distressed.
וְ֭נַפְשִׁי נִבְהֲלָ֣ה מְאֹ֑ד וְאַתָּ֥ה יְ֝הוָ֗ה עַד־מָתָֽי׃	4	And my soul has become very dismayed. And you, YHWH, how long will you continue to discipline me in your anger?
שׁוּבָ֣ה יְ֭הוָה חַלְּצָ֣ה נַפְשִׁ֑י ה֝וֹשִׁיעֵ֗נִי לְמַ֣עַן חַסְדֶּֽךָ׃	5	Turn back from your anger, YHWH. Rescue my soul from death. Help me for the sake of your loyalty. You made a covenant with me, and you are committed to fulfilling your covenant obligations. You have said that your loyalty would never depart from my house.
כִּ֤י אֵ֣ין בַּמָּ֣וֶת זִכְרֶ֑ךָ בִּ֝שְׁא֗וֹל מִ֣י יֽוֹדֶה־לָּֽךְ׃	6	You should act because I am close to death. And if I die, I will not be able to praise you, For there is no commemoration of you in the world of the dead. In Sheol, who praises you? No one praises you in Sheol.
יָגַ֤עְתִּי׀ בְּֽאַנְחָתִ֗י אַשְׂחֶ֣ה בְכָל־לַ֭יְלָה מִטָּתִ֑י בְּ֝דִמְעָתִ֗י עַרְשִׂ֥י אַמְסֶֽה׃	7	See the desperateness of my situation; see how close to death I am. I have grown weary because of my groaning. I drench my bed every night. With my tears I melt my couch. It is as though I am already in Sheol, the place where you are not named.
עָֽשְׁשָׁ֣ה מִכַּ֣עַס עֵינִ֑י עָֽ֝תְקָ֗ה בְּכָל־צוֹרְרָֽי׃	8	My eye has wasted away because of vexation. It has become weak because of all my adversaries. I am vexed because of my enemies, who have exacerbated the situation. They have interpreted my sickness as a sign of sin and divine rejection, and they seek to take advantage of my weak position.
ס֣וּרוּ מִ֭מֶּנִּי כָּל־פֹּ֣עֲלֵי אָ֑וֶן כִּֽי־שָׁמַ֥ע יְ֝הוָ֗ה ק֣וֹל בִּכְיִֽי׃	9	YHWH promised that his loyalty would not move away from me. So, in my authority as the king, with YHWH still on my side, I say, Move away from me, all workers of evil. You have done evil in God's sight by opposing his anointed king. And, by opposing YHWH's anointed, you have opposed YHWH himself. For YHWH has not rejected me. Instead, he has heard the sound of my weeping.
שָׁמַ֣ע יְ֭הוָה תְּחִנָּתִ֑י יְ֝הוָ֗ה תְּֽפִלָּתִ֥י יִקָּֽח׃	10	YHWH has heard my supplication. He will turn from anger and have mercy. YHWH will take up my request. He will heal me. This means that I will be vindicated, and it will become clear that YHWH has not rejected me as king. And, when I am vindicated, then you will be shown to be in the wrong, having opposed YHWH's rightful king. YHWH will punish you, and you will be exposed as evil-doers and public failures.
יֵבֹ֤שׁוּ׀ וְיִבָּהֲל֣וּ מְ֭אֹד כָּל־אֹיְבָ֑י יָ֝שֻׁ֗בוּ יֵבֹ֥שׁוּ רָֽגַע׃	11	YHWH, according to your justice Let all my enemies be shamed and very dismayed just as I was shamed and dismayed. Let them turn back. Let them be shamed in an instant.
