The discourse from vv. 42-57b (cf. the lexical parallelism with v. 9) recounts precisely what they ""did not remember"" (v. 42a), though, artfully passes the ""present"" of v. 42, through the wilderness on into the conquest of the promised land, which brings us back to vv. 9-12 in Shiloh. Notice, too, the double 3pl + 3ms in vv. 40, 58. Alternatively, though slightly awkward, לֹא־זָכְר֥וּ of v. 42 might refer to the Ephraimites in vv. 9-12 who ""did not remember.""ites in vv. 9-12 who ""did not remember."")

- Psalm 78/Notes/Verbal.v. 55.239545 + (Rather than an obligation, as would be communicated by a typical causative hiphil, וַיַּשְׁכֵּן seems best understood as a permissive hiphil, ""let/allow to live"" (see Garr forthcoming, Permissive Hifʿil; cf. Tigay 2017).)
- Psalm 78/Notes/Grammar.V. 9.179548 + (Rather than modifying the subject, the phrase(s) נוֹשְׁקֵ֥י רוֹמֵי־קָ֑שֶׁת could also be understood as adverbial, though this is unlikely in light of the ancient versions and the Masoretic accents.)
- Psalm 49/Notes/Grammar.v. 9.627057 + (Regarding the syntax of vv 8–10, Delitzsch … Regarding the syntax of vv 8–10, Delitzsch notes that v. 9 should be treated as a parenthetic insertion (BHS suggests it is a gloss): "But how is Psa 49:10 attached to what precedes?"'"`UNIQ--ref-00000000-QINU`"' Hengstenberg renders it, 'he must for ever give it up, that he should live continually and not see the grave. But according to the syntax, ויהי cannot be attached to וחדל, but only to the futures in Psa 49:8, ranking with which the voluntative ויחי, ut vivat (Ew. 347, a). Thus, therefore, nothing remains but to take Psa 49:9 (which von Ortenberg expunges as a gloss upon Psa 49:8 %5B; cf. BHS%5D) as a parenthesis; the principal clause affirms that no man can give to God a ransom that shall protect another against death, so that this other should still continue (עוד) to live, and that without end (לנצח), without seeing the grave, i.e., without being obliged to go down into the grave." Agreeing with Delitzsch on the parenthetical status of v. 9, it is, however, preferable to see a rich person from v. 8 trying to redeem himself.person from v. 8 trying to redeem himself.)

- Psalm 49/Notes/Grammar.v. 9.24805 + (The MT's נפשם/"their soul" (pl.) could ref … The MT's נפשם/"their soul" (pl.) could reflect the (erroneous, momentary) reading of אח as "brother" instead of אח as the interjection "surely" (i.e., the alternatively (or carelessly) spelled אַךְ; note that eight MSS have אַךְ here instead of אָח; cf. v. 16, which deals with the issue of redemption, uses the root פדה, and features אַךְ: "But/אַךְ God will redeem me from the realm of the dead..." %5BNIV%5D). So, "their soul" would refer to the soul(s) of this brother and the איש he is trying to redeem (per such reading). In other words, the ransom for both of them is too costly. The pl. form of נפש would not be necessary, as the singular could be used in contexts where the plural is meant (e.g., נפשנו תחתיכם; Josh 2:14). Alternatively, the MT's נפשם/"their soul" (pl.) could refer to the individuals (pl.) from vv. 6-7, who trust in their wealth and boast of their riches. But the switch to singular forms in vv. 9b, 10, 11 makes it unlikely.

It may be that the ancient versions reflect such a reading, too (see, e.g., διʼ ἀγγέλων πονηρῶν "through wicked angels"; angelorum malorum, etc.), though this rendering is also a valid interpretation of the construct phrase מַלְאֲכֵ֥י רָעִֽים entity-characteristic (so "messengers of evil ones" >> "messengers of %5Bcarrying out%5D evils"). Similarly, GKC (§128w) notes the common construction (cf. מֵ֥י מָ֝לֵ֗א in Ps 73:10 and לִ֭שְׁמָרְךָ מֵאֵ֣שֶׁת רָ֑ע in Prov 6:24).0 and לִ֭שְׁמָרְךָ מֵאֵ֣שֶׁת רָ֑ע in Prov 6:24).)

- Psalm 88/Notes/Verbal.V. 15.973767 + (The lack of reference point movement and ''yiqtol'' verbal forms prompt us to translate תִּזְנַח and תַּסְתִּיר in English as relative imperfective present tenses, with implied continuity (not habituality), to get 'keep doing...'.)
- Psalm 2/Notes/Grammar.v. 1.155802 + (The noun '''רִיק''' could either be the di … The noun '''רִיק''' could either be the direct object of the verb'"`UNIQ--ref-00000003-QINU`"' or a nominal adverb.'"`UNIQ--ref-00000004-QINU`"' Both interpretations are grammatically possible. For the direct object interpretation, cf. Ps 4:3 (תֶּאֱהָב֣וּן רִ֑יק). See also the numerous examples of הגה taking a similar abstract noun as its object: Isa 59:3 (עַוְלָה); Ps 37:30 (חָכְמָה); Ps 38:13 (וּמִרְמֹות); Prov 8:7 (אֱמֶת); Job 27:4 (רְמִיָּה). For the nominal adverb interpretation, cf. Ps 73:13—אַךְ־רִ֭יק זִכִּ֣יתִי לְבָבִ֑י (also Isa 30:7; cf. the frequently occurring phrase לְרִיק/לָרִיק, Lev 26:16, 20; Isa 49:4; 65:23; Job 39:16). Given the fact that the verb הגה typically takes an object (either a bare noun phrase or a ''beth'' prepositional phrase), the direct object interpretation is more likely.

- Psalm 49/Notes/Grammar.v. 14.393902 + (The text in v. 15 is "irreparably corrupt" … The text in v. 15 is "irreparably corrupt" (Kraus 1988, 480) and the meaning of v. 15c-d is obscure, with BHS essentially suggesting emendations for every constituent. As a result, there are too many possible combinations to diagram here.</br></br>The issues in the MT include:</br>* In v. 15c, the MT has וירדו בם ישרים ׀ לבקר/"the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning" (cf. G, εβρ, α', σ', ε', Hebr, S; cf. LUTH1545; SG21; BULG; RUSV; UKR). TgPs offers a long, expanded midrash, not only for this phrase, but the entire verse ("They appointed the righteous like a flock for death, and the killed them; and they crushed? the righteous and subjugated them, and they smote the upright; therefore their bodies decay in Gehenna, because they stretched out their hand and ruined the house of the dwelling place of his Shekinah"; Stec 2004, 103-104). BHS's proposed emendations are reflected in NEB and REB as follows:</br>** NEB: "like sheep they run headlong into Sheol, the land of Death; he is their shepherd and urges them on; their flesh must rot away/וירדם בשרם לרקב and their Bodies be wasted By Sheol, stripped of all honour". Cf. Briggs and Briggs, who (with emendation) link וירדו to the preceding clause: “Death is their shepherd and their ruler.”'"`UNIQ--ref-00000000-QINU`"' But if the emendation בשרם לרקב ("their flesh must rot away") is accepted in v. 15c, then v. 15d will be redundant ("their form will waste away in Sheol"; if, of course, v. 15d is read this way).</br>** As REB, NRSV seems to go with the suggested emendation במישרים (BHS) for בם ישרים and לקבר for לקבר: REB: "Like sheep they head for Sheol; with death as their shepherd, they go straight down to the grave/וירדו במישרים לקבר. Their Bodies, stripped of all honour, waste away in Sheol". Cf. NRSV: "Like sheep they are appointed for Sheol; Death shall be their shepherd; straight to the grave they descend, and their form shall waste away; Sheol shall be their home."</br>: On contextual grounds, these emendations seem plausible.</br>: By contrast, Barthélemy accepts the MT as is. Since in the MT, וירדו בם ישרים ׀ לבקר follows the expression “death will shepherd them/be their shepherd”, he connects וירדו to trampling down/רדה of enemies in ANE iconography, and evaluates this reading as highly probable.'"`UNIQ--ref-00000001-QINU`"' He explains, that once the people in question are in the power of death, the upright get to trample their corpses (as, for example, in the stele of Naram-Sin, the victorious kings are represented trampling the corpses of their enemies).'"`UNIQ--ref-00000002-QINU`"' On the capture and subjugation of enemies in the morning, see Neo-Assyrian inscriptions, wherein warring kings often speak of the destruction of cities in the morning. E.g., RIMA 2 A. 0.101.1 ii 106, wherein Ashurnasirpal II captures and defeats the city Pituru “before the sunrise” (cf. RIMA 2 A.0.101.17 iv 71; RIMA 2 A.0.101.19 73); RIMA 2 A. 0.101.18 27’, where Ashurnasirpal II, at sunrise, fights and conquers “the cities Amlattu, Saburam, Ruzidak, Bugu, (and) Ustu, rebel cities of the land Dannuna”. Cf. RINAP 2 2 312, “I (Sargon II) surrounded (and) %5Bcon%5Dquered %5Bthat%5D city (Dur-Abi-hara) before the day had proceeded half a double-hour” (i.e., within an hour of sunrise; Frame, The Royal Inscriptions of Sargon II, 97). On help/deliverance coming in the morning in HB, see Exod 14:27; Isa 17:14; 29:7; 33:2; 37:36//2 Kgs 19:35; Zeph 3:5; 2 Chr 20:20–25.</br>* In v. 15d, the majority of mss follow the qere וצורם/"and their rock" against the ketiv וצירם/"and their form/figure" (from ציר IV; HALOT). The LXX, however, has "help": “and help (καὶ ἡ βοήθεια αὐτῶν) for them will grow old in Hades, away from their glory” (NETS; this is probably a metaphorical rendering of צור, since elsewhere the LXX represents צור similarly in reference to God as one’s “rock.”). Here, the ketiv (the outer, bodily form) is preferred. All of the body is destined to be consumed in Sheol.'"`UNIQ--ref-00000003-QINU`"'</br>* At the end of v. 15d, the MT has מזבל לו/"away from his/its lofty place/dwelling" (σ', Hebr, T), whereas the LXX, α', and Syr. assimilate this into the context (Syr.: "they will be removed from their glories"; Taylor 2020, 191; additionally, Pesh. takes לו %5B3ms%5D as למו %5B3mpl%5D). Some, however, suggest repointing it to render “Who is its prince?”'"`UNIQ--ref-00000004-QINU`"' Barthélemy accepts the MT as is, understanding it as highly probable.'"`UNIQ--ref-00000005-QINU`"'. Notably, the NRSV treats שאול מזבל לו as a separate clause (i.e., "Sheol shall be their home."). But the MT places a disjunctive mark over שאול, linking it to the previous constituent.</br>: Here, without accepting proposed emendations, v. 15 is rendered as "Like a flock, they set themselves for Sheol; death shepherds them; the upright dominate them when the morning approaches. Their form is for Sheol to consume, away form their lofty habitation."</br>* Cf. Stec's tentative translation of v. 15 in the MT is “like a flock they are appointed for Sheol; death shall shepherd them, and the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning; and their form shall be for Sheol to consume, without a dwelling place for it.”'"`UNIQ--ref-00000006-QINU`"' Cf. Ross' rendering: "As sheep they are appointed for the grave; death shall be their shepherd; and the upright shall rule over them in the morning; and their form shall be for the grave to consume, so that they have no habitation"). ( Ross explains: "Hebrew has מזבל לו, literally 'from its habitation.' It could be 'out of its dwelling' or 'without its dwelling,' meaning it has no more dwelling.'"`UNIQ--ref-00000007-QINU`"'ore dwelling.'"`UNIQ--ref-00000007-QINU`"')

The latter (מוֹשַׁב) can refer to a seat used for sitting (e.g., 1 Sam 20:18, 25), but in Hebrew, one does not sit "in" (ב) a seat but "on" (על) it. When the preposition "in" (ב) is prefixed to this word, the reference is often to a dwelling place.'"`UNIQ--ref-00000002-QINU`"'elling place.'"`UNIQ--ref-00000002-QINU`"')

Frequently figurative language expresses ridicule; for example, 'shake the finger,' 'wag the head,' or 'make faces.'"'"`UNIQ--ref-00000003-QINU`"' The CEV translation, "sneering at God," may be too narrow, since the contempt of mockers may also be directed at other people. Whereas the Law of YHWH (see v. 2) is summed up in the commands to love God and one's neighbor,'"`UNIQ--ref-00000004-QINU`"' the journey that begins with "the counsel of wicked people" leads to contempt for God and one's neighbor - the very opposite of what God requires. - the very opposite of what God requires.)

Their functional overlap with wayyiqtol is suggested by the scribal tendency to provide the wayyiqtol וַיָּהֲרֹג for the MT's יַהֲרֹג in v. 47 (see below). One could postulate that the functional distinction to be drawn between these yiqtol forms and the wayyiqtol is analogous to the same aspectual effect brought about by the historical present in English (Khan, Long Yiqṭol, 35), though a preterite reading has been preferred here.

- Psalm 78/Notes/Verbal.v. 19.593594 + (This is a unique qatal form of the elabora … This is a unique qatal form of the elaborative quotative frame, most prototypically expressed by the wayyiqtol (see, e.g., Judg 11:30; 1 Sam 25:5: 1 Kgs 18:24; 21:4; 2 Kgs 1:2). In any case, its adverbial function as ""co-subordinate"" is quite clear. The ancient versions vary between providing a conjunction ""spoke... and said"" (LXX, Syr.) and rendering one verb of speech as adverbial (e.g., Hebr.: et loquentes contra Deum dicebant ""and speaking against God, they would say..."").peaking against God, they would say..."").)
