re.na.nah denotes triumphing, whether withheld from a night, linked with the wicked, or brought before the LORD.

The attested use concerns triumphing in contrasting settings: it is linked to the wicked in Job 20:5, withheld from a night in Job 3:7, and present when coming before the LORD in Psalm 100:2. In Psalm 63:6, the plural form occurs in a clause about remembering and muttering during the watches, though the translation does not isolate its contribution.

Senses in use

  1. Triumphing named or withheld · dominant

    In Job 20:5, the construct singular stands in the clause rendered by the APB as “the triumphing of the wicked,” while Job 3:7 has the absolute singular in “let no triumphing come into it.” Psalm 100:2 likewise uses the absolute singular in the APB clause “Come before his face with triumphing”; Psalm 63:6 has the plural absolute in the clause about remembering upon the bed and muttering through the watches, where the translation does not make the term's specific contribution clear.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB explicitly uses “triumphing” in Job 20:5, Job 3:7, and Psalm 100:2. In Psalm 63:6 it renders the whole clause as remembering and muttering through the watches, without an evident corresponding English term.
