1.1 KiB
General Information:
There is a shift here to the second person. This may mean 1) the writer begins speaking to the people of Israel or 2) the writer is quoting another person speaking to the writer. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-123person)
your foot to slip
The slipping of a foot is associated with falling. AT: "you to fall" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy)
he who protects ... the guardian
These two phrases means the same thing, and emphasize God's role as a protector. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-parallelism)
he who protects you will not slumber
Here to "slumber" means he would stop protecting. The negative form strengthens the statement. AT: "God will not fall asleep and stop protecting you" or "God will always protect you" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy and rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-doublenegatives)
will not slumber ... never slumbers or sleeps
These two phrases have similar meanings. The second one strengthens the thought in the first. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-parallelism)
