Psalm 10:16 New English Translation

¹⁶The Lord rules forever!^[a]
The nations are driven out of his land.^[b]

Psalm 10:16 tn Heb “the Lord is king forever and ever.”
Psalm 10:16 tn Or “the nations perish from his land.” The perfect verb form may express what is typical or it may express rhetorically the psalmist’s certitude that God’s deliverance is “as good as done.”sn The nations may be the underlying reality behind the psalmist’s references to the “wicked” in the earlier verses. This reference to the nations may have motivated the combining of Ps 10 with Ps 9 (see Ps 9:5, 15, 19).
