Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

In you, Yahweh, I take refuge

(Some words not found in UHB: in/on/at/with,you YHWH taken_refuge not put_to_shame to,forever )

Going to Yahweh for protection is spoken of as taking refuge in him. Alternate translation: “go to you, Yahweh, for protection”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

let me never be put to shame

(Some words not found in UHB: in/on/at/with,you YHWH taken_refuge not put_to_shame to,forever )

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. See how “do not let me be humiliated” is translated in Psalms 25:2. Alternate translation: “never let my enemies put me to shame”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / exclamations

(Some words not found in UHB: in/on/at/with,you YHWH taken_refuge not put_to_shame to,forever )
