#Psalmtweet #Psalter 138:2

 


אֶשְׁתַּחֲוֶ֨ה אֶל־הֵיכַ֪ל קָדְשְׁךָ֡ וְא֘וֹדֶ֤ה אֶת־שְׁמֶ֗ךָ עַל־חַסְדְּךָ֥ וְעַל־אֲמִתֶּ֑ךָ
כִּֽי־הִגְדַּ֥לְתָּ עַל־כָּל־שִׁ֝מְךָ֗ אִמְרָתֶֽךָ
2 I will worship in your holy temple and give thanks to your name over your kindness, and over your truth,
for you magnify your promise over all your name.

Now here's a throwback from 15 years ago when I was just starting out to translate and this psalm was the subject of one of many diagrams I drew to learn Hebrew.
From 2008 - just looking around - no knowledge of the music till Oxford 2010.
