1.4 KiB
Wake up, my honored heart
It can be stated clearly that the purpose of waking up is to sing praises to God. Waking up may be a metaphor for starting or preparing to do something. The heart represents the psalmist or his emotions. AT: "Wake up, my honored heart, to sing praises to God" or "I will prepare my honored heart to sing praises to God" or "I am honored to wake up and sing praises to God" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit and rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor and rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-synecdoche)
wake up, lute and harp
It can be stated clearly that the purpose of waking up is to sing praises to God. The psalmist speaks as though the lute and harp were people who could wake up to sing praises to God. AT: "Wake up, lute and harp, and sing praises to God" or "I will play the lute and harp while I sing praises to God" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit and rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-personification and rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor)
I will wake up the dawn
The dawn is spoken of as if it were alive, and getting up before dawn happens is spoken of as waking it up. The purpose of getting up before dawn is to praise God. AT: "I will get up before dawn" or "I will get up before the sun rises" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-personification and rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor and rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit)
