Footnotes
The closing clause is one of the boldest theological statements in the Psalter: *ki-higdalta al-kol-shimcha imratecha* — 'for You have exalted above Your whole name Your word/promise.' *Imratecha* (Your utterance/word) is elevated above *shem* (name) — meaning YHWH's faithfulness to His spoken promise is the ultimate expression of His character, surpassing even His Name as the ultimate guarantor. *Hesed* (covenant-love) and *emet* (faithfulness/truth) are the twin pillars of YHWH's covenantal identity throughout the Psalter (cf. Ps. 86:15; 89:14; Exod. 34:6). FOG renders *imratecha* as 'word' for linguistic precision; FOG Message renders it 'promise' to foreground its covenantal, forward-pointing freight.
