Psalm 18:48

New English Translation

⁴⁸He delivers me^[a] from my enemies.
You snatch me away^[b] from those who attack me;^[c]
you rescue me from violent men.

Psalm 18:48 tn Heb “[the one who] delivers me.” 2 Sam 22:49 reads “and [the one who] brings me out.”
Psalm 18:48 tn Heb “lifts me up.” In light of the preceding and following references to deliverance, the verb רום probably here refers to being rescued from danger (see Ps 9:13). However, it could mean “exalt, elevate” here, indicating that the Lord has given the psalmist victory over his enemies and forced them to acknowledge the psalmist’s superiority (cf. NIV, NRSV).
Psalm 18:48 tn Heb “from those who rise against me.”
