Psalms 18:31
31 Indeed, ▼
▼tn Or “for.”
who is God besides the Lord? Who is a protector ▼ besides our God? ▼
▼tn The rhetorical questions anticipate the answer, “No one.” In this way the psalmist indicates that the Lord is the only true God and reliable source of protection. See also Deut 32:39, where the Lord affirms that he is the only true God. Note as well the emphasis on his role as protector (Heb “rocky cliff,” צוּר, tsur) in Deut 32:4, 15, 17-18, 30.
