Footnotes
Rinah denotes a shout of jubilant, almost uncontainable praise—distinct from quieter shir (song). The nations (goyim) become involuntary witnesses to Yahweh's greatness, echoing the eschatological vision of Gentiles acknowledging Israel's God (Isa. 52:10; Ps. 98:2)—a typological anticipation of the gospel going to all peoples. F.O.G. renders rinah as "ringing song" to preserve its sonic intensity; F.O.G.M. uses "shouts of joy" for its liturgical warmth and emotional immediacy.
