Lexical notes
[edit]
Verse 3
- Mine horn is exalted. Note this phrase is also used in verse 10. The Anchor Bible notes that the horn can be both a visible sign of success (cf. Num 23:22 and 24:8) and a symbol of progeny (cf. 1 Chr 25:5, Ps 132:17, Deut 33:16-17).
- In the Lord. The Anchor Bible translates this phrase "by the Lord" (emphasis added). This translation forms a stronger contrast than the KJV with Ps 75:4-5 where the fool pridfully raises his own horn.
