8 The evergreens also rejoice over your demise, ^{▼▼tn Heb “concerning you.”}
as do the cedars of Lebanon, singing, ^{▼▼tn The word “singing” is supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons. Note that the personified trees speak in the second half of the verse.}
‘Since you fell asleep, ^{▼▼tn Heb “lay down” (in death); cf. NAB “laid to rest.”}
no woodsman comes up to chop us down!’ ^{▼▼tn Heb “the [wood]cutter does not come up against us.”}
