Language

pal.let denotes deliverance as an action, appearing in songs of deliverance and in an imperative within a prayer about tears.

The attested forms present deliverance as an action: Psalm 32:7 places an infinitive construct in the clause about songs of deliverance surrounding the speaker, while Psalm 56:8 uses an imperative in a verse concerning wanderings, tears, and a scroll, though the translation does not isolate its contribution there.

    In Psalm 32:7, the Piel infinitive construct occurs in the clause that the APB renders "songs of deliverance surround me," within the speaker's address to a hiding place from distress. In Psalm 56:8, the Piel imperative occurs in a verse the APB renders with the speaker's wanderings, tears in a wineskin, and a scroll; the translation does not make the imperative explicit.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB explicitly includes "songs of deliverance" in Psalm 32:7. In Psalm 56:8, it gives the surrounding prayer about wanderings, tears, and a scroll without an evident English rendering of the imperative.
