#Psalmtweet #Psalter 77:8

 The drama in the Hebrew is so much more obvious than this translation. The verse must end with ever. or will he not again be favorable ever? Translator - don't smooth things out!

One wonders in these days about this question

הַֽ֭לְעוֹלָמִים יִזְנַ֥ח ׀ אֲדֹנָ֑י
וְלֹֽא־יֹסִ֖יף לִרְצ֣וֹת עֽוֹד
8 ♪g In the eras to come will my Lord reject?
Or will he never again be favorable?
