The Key Word — יְהוָ֥ה, Yah.wehgenerated
The word יְהוָ֥ה (Yahweh) is the proper name for God in the Hebrew Bible, often translated as 'LORD'. It signifies the self-existent nature of God and is associated with His covenant relationship with Israel.

In this verse, the invocation of יְהוָ֥ה highlights the speaker's recognition of God's sovereignty and mercy, underscoring their reliance on Him for grace and strength.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The verse contains a series of clauses that express a plea to the LORD, with the finite verb חָנֵּ֖נוּ (be gracious) at the forefront. This verb governs the request for grace, followed by a statement of reliance on God for strength and salvation.
The structure emphasizes the urgency of the speaker's request, with the imperative verbs הֱיֵ֤ה (be) and קִוִּ֑ינוּ (we have waited) underscoring the speaker's dependence on God's action in their life.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates יְהוָ֥ה as κύριε (Lord), which reflects the same reverence found in the Hebrew. This choice indicates a continuity in the understanding of God's authority and presence.
The word חָנֵּ֖נוּ is rendered as ἡμᾶς (us), which shifts the focus slightly from the act of graciousness to the recipients of that grace, emphasizing the communal aspect of the plea.

AdamClarkeAdam Clarke's Commentary on the BibleVerse 2. Be thou their arm every morning - "Be thou our strength every morning"] For זרעם zeroam, their arm, the Syriac, Chaldee, and Vulgate read זרענו zeroenu, our arm, in the first person of the pronoun, not the third: the edition of Felix Pratensis has זרעתינו zerootheynu in the margin. The prophet is here praying against the enemies of God's people; and yet this part of the prayer seems to be in their behalf: but from the above authorities it appears that OUR arm is the true reading, though I do not find it confirmed by any of Kennicott's, De Rossi's, or my own MSS. My old MS. Bible has, - Be thou oure arm in erly.

יְהֹוָה (ye.ho.vah) is the proper name of the God of Israel, often rendered as Jehovah or the Lord. It signifies the self-existent or eternal nature of God. The name is closely associated with the revelation to Moses in Exodus 3:12-15 and is used in conjunction with other terms to denote sacred places. Some scholars suggest it derives from a root meaning 'to bring into being.'

ol'-so: In the Greek kai, when it is equivalent to "also" or "even," is always placed before the word or phrase which it is intended to emphasize (e.g. Ac 12:3; 1 Joh 4:21). Mt 6:14 should therefore read, "Your heavenly Father will forgive you also"; Lu 6:13, "Whom also he named apostles"; Heb 8:6, "The mediator of a better covenant also"; and 1Th 4:14, `If we believe that Jesus died and rose again, so also (we believe that) those who are fallen asleep in Jesus, God will bring with Him.'

In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use.

That holy thing that shall be born of thee. Luke 1:1.
Hence of is the sign of the genitive case, the case that denotes production; as the son of man, the son proceeding from man, produced from man. This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man. 'Part of these were slain; ' that is, a number separate, for part denotes a division; the sense then is, a number from or out of the whole were slain. So also, 'some of these were slain; ' that is…
