Psalms 72:14
14 From harm and violence he will defend them; ▼▼tn Or “redeem their lives.” The verb “redeem” casts the
Lord in the role of a leader who protects members of his extended family in times of need and crisis (see
Pss 19:14;
69:18).
he will value their lives. ▼▼tn Heb “their blood will be precious in his eyes.”
