The prize for the shortest of all the Psalms - just two verses; or is it an error, and these two verses actually belong at the end of 116, or at the beginning of 118 - or somewhere else altogether? I wonder if, being part of Hallel, it was simply the congregational chorus sung between all the other Hallel Psalms? Evidence for this in my note, below.
117:1 HALELU ET YHVH KOL GOYIM SHABECHUHU KOL HA UMIM
KJ (King James translation): O praise the LORD, all ye nations: praise him, all ye people.
SHABECHUHU: See my lengthy note at Psalm 63:4, and a slight variation at 147:12, based on the appearance of the same root but with a possibly different intention at Psalm 89:10
117:2 KI GAVAR ALEYNU CHASDO VE EMET YHVH LE OLAM HALELU YAH
KJ: For his merciful kindness is great toward us: and the truth of the LORD endureth for ever. Praise ye the LORD.
BN: For his care and concern for us is vast; and YHVH's truth endures for ever. {N} Hallelu Yah.
YAH: If the praise at the end is for the Lady, rather than the Lord, was this Psalm originally entirely about her, or is it simply an acknowledgement that these Psalms are for singing on her birthday, and therefore she has to be included, however diminished in stature?
