# you who sit above the cherubim
You may need to make explicit that the cherubim are those on the lid of the ark of the covenant. The biblical writers often spoke of the ark of the covenant as if it were Yahweh's footstool upon which he rested his feet as he sat on his throne in heaven above. Alternate translation: "you who sit on your throne above the cherubim on the ark of the covenant" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])
"you who sit on your throne above the cherubim on the ark of the covenant"
# shine on us
Asaph speaks of God as if he were the sun, giving light, a metaphor for moral goodness. Alternate translation: "give us light" or "show us the right way to live" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
"give us light" or "show us the right way to live"
