The Key Word — מְבֹרָךְ, me.vo.Rakhgenerated
The word מְבֹרָךְ (mevoRakh) is a passive participle derived from the root בָּרַךְ (barak), which means 'to bless.' It signifies being blessed or honored, particularly in the context of worshiping God.
In this verse, it indicates that the name of the LORD is to be praised and honored. The passive form suggests that the act of blessing is directed towards God's name, acknowledging His greatness and authority.
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 main verb of the verse is יְהִ֤י, may it be, which governs the entire statement. It establishes a wish or desire for the name of the LORD to be blessed.
The structure consists of a noun phrase that serves as the subject, followed by prepositional phrases that indicate the time frame of 'now' and 'forevermore.' This arrangement emphasizes the continuity of praise throughout time.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates יְהִ֤י as εἴη (eiē), which conveys a similar jussive sense of wishing or desiring. This choice reflects the intent of the psalmist to declare a perpetual state of blessing.
The term used for מְבֹרָךְ in the Septuagint is εὐλογημένον, which carries the same connotation of being blessed, maintaining the thematic continuity of praise.

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran
The Masoretic Text of Psalms 113:2 reads, 'יְהִ֤י שֵׁ֣ם יְהוָ֣ה מְבֹרָ֑ךְ מֵֽ֝עַתָּ֗ה וְעַד־ עוֹלָֽם׃' which translates to 'Blessed be the name of the LORD both now and forevermore.' The Septuagint agrees with the Masoretic Text in its wording, with all seven words matched in the word-by-word correspondence, although the Greek translation may differ in word order and articles. There are no significant differences noted in the Samaritan Pentateuch or the Dead Sea Scrolls for this verse, indicating a strong textual consistency across these ancient witnesses.
יְהִ֤י שֵׁ֣ם יְהוָ֣ה מְבֹרָ֑ךְ מֵֽ֝עַתָּ֗ה וְעַד־ עוֹלָֽם׃

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. 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. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
OF, preposition ov. [Gr.]
1. From or out of; proceeding from, as the cause, source, means, author or agent bestowing.

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…
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.'

bles'-ed (barukh): Where God is referred to, this word has the sense of "praise," as in 1Sa 25:32, "Blessed be Yahweh, the God of Israel."
