Psa 119:25 | Clarke | STEP | Verse 25 My soul cleaveth unto the dust - It would be best to translate נפשי naphshi, my life; and then cleaving to the dust may imply an apprehension of approaching death; and this agrees best with the petition. Quicken thou me - חיני chaiyeni, "make me alive." Keep me from going down into the dust.
