Psalms 119:25

ד (Dalet)

25 I collapse in the dirt. ^{▼▼ Heb “my soul clings to the dirt.” The Hebrew term נֶפֶשׁ (nefesh, “being; soul”) with a pronominal suffix is often equivalent to a pronoun, especially in poetry (see BDB 660 s.v. נֶפֶשׁ 4.a).}
Revive me with your word! ^{▼▼ Heb “according to your word.” Many medieval Hebrew mss read the plural “your words.”}
