Psalm 36:  Syllables 236 Longest recitation 12 Tenor e  22.46%

This is one of the psalms that begins with a trumpet fanfare - the impact of the illuy as interpreted in this deciphering key derived by Suzanne Haïk-Vantoura. (Or shofar). It is one of two psalms labeled as an oracle. The other is psalm 110. Both these psalms are followed by acrostics. That makes them special. This psalm is about 'me'. It is not any 'other'. The qadma is common in the prose books but rare in the poetry, it occurs in only 353 verses.

1 For the leader. Of a servant of Yahweh. Of David. (1-1)
