Psalms 90:17

17 May our sovereign God extend his favor to us! ^{▼▼ Heb “and may the delight of the Master, our God, be on us.” The Hebrew term נֹעַם (no’am, “delight”) is used in Ps 27:4 of the Lord’s “beauty,” but here it seems to refer to his favor (see BDB 653 s.v.) or kindness (HALOT 706 s.v.).}
Make our endeavors successful!
Yes, make them successful! ^{▼▼ Heb “and the work of our hands establish over us, and the work of our hands, establish it.”}

Psalm 91

^{▼▼ Psalm 91. In this psalm an individual (perhaps a priest) addresses one who has sought shelter in the Lord and assures him that God will protect him from danger (vv. 1–13). In vv. 14–16 God himself promises to keep his loyal follower safe.}
