## translationNotes

* **as a shepherd keeps his sheep** - This means God cares for and protects his people as a shepherd does his sheep. (See: [[:en:ta:vol1:translate:figs_simile]])
* **For Yahweh has ransomed Jacob and has redeemed him from the hand that was too strong for him** - Here "ransomed" and "redeemed" mean basically the same thing. AT: "For Yahweh will rescue the people of Israel from their enemy who was too strong for them." (See: [[:en:ta:vol2:translate:figs_doublet]] and [[:en:ta:vol2:translate:figs_metonymy]])
