Psalms 52:9

9 I will continually ^{▼▼ Or, hyperbolically, “forever.”} thank you when ^{▼▼ Or “for.”} you execute judgment; ^{▼▼ Heb “you have acted.” The perfect verbal form (1) probably indicates a future perfect here. The psalmist promises to give thanks when the expected vindication has been accomplished. Other options include (2) a generalizing (“for you act”) or (3) rhetorical (“for you will act”) use.}
I will rely ^{▼▼ Or “wait.”} on you, ^{▼▼ Heb “your name.” God’s “name” refers here to his reputation and revealed character.} for your loyal followers know you are good. ^{▼▼ Heb “for it is good in front of your loyal followers.”}
