OET interlinear PSA 99:8

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

אֱלֹהֵי⁠נוּ֮

God_of,our

The psalmist is using this possessive form to mean the God whom the people worship. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [the God whom we worship]

Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns

אַתָּ֪ה עֲנִ֫יתָ֥⁠ם

(Some words not found in UHB: YHWH God_of,our you(ms) you,answered_them god lifting/taking were to/for=them and,avenging_yourself on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in deeds_of,their )

The psalmist is stating the pronoun you separately, even though the verb translated as you answered already includes this meaning. He is doing that to emphasize that God himself personally answered them. If a speaker of your language would use an explicit pronoun for the same purpose, you may want to use that construction in your translation. If not, your language may have other ways of showing the meaning here. Alternate translation: [you answered them yourself]

Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns

עֲנִ֫יתָ֥⁠ם

you,answered_them

The pronoun them refers to Moses, Aaron, and Samuel. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [you answered Moses, Aaron, and Samuel]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

עֲנִ֫יתָ֥⁠ם

you,answered_them

The implication is that God answered Moses, Aaron, and Samuel by helping them when they called out to him in times of need. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [you helped them]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

עֲלִילוֹתָֽ⁠ם

deeds_of,their

Here the psalmist assumes that readers will know that their deeds refers to sinful or wrongful actions. You could say that explicitly if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [their sinful deeds]
