The Key Word — יִמָּ֣לֵא, yi.Ma.le'generated
The verb מָלֵא (male') means 'to fill' or 'be full,' indicating a state of being completely satisfied. In this context, it conveys the idea of the mouth being abundantly filled with praise, suggesting an overwhelming response to God's glory.
The Niphal form indicates a passive or reflexive action, emphasizing that the psalmist's mouth is filled, likely by the act of worship itself. This highlights a deep connection between the psalmist and God, where praise is not merely spoken but is an integral part of their being.
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 consists of a main clause with the finite verb יִמָּ֣לֵא, is filled, governing the subject פִ֭י (my mouth). The structure emphasizes the act of filling, with additional phrases elaborating on the nature of what fills the mouth — God's praise and splendor.
The phrase תְּהִלָּתֶ֑ךָ (your praise) follows the subject, specifying the content of the filling, while תִּפְאַרְתֶּֽךָ (your splendor) complements it, enriching the meaning of the psalmist's expression of worship.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates יִמָּ֣לֵא as πληρωθήτω (let it be filled), which carries a similar sense of fullness but introduces a slight nuance of command, suggesting an active desire for the filling to occur. This reflects the psalmist's intent to continually engage in praise.
This choice of wording in the Septuagint highlights the dynamic nature of worship, where the act of praising God is not passive but an active response to His glory.

da (yom; hemera): This common word has caused some trouble to plain readers, because they have not noticed that the word is used in several different senses in the English Bible. When the different uses of the word are understood the difficulty of interpretation vanishes. We note several different uses of the word:
(1) It sometimes means the time from daylight till dark. This popular meaning is easily discovered by the context, e. g. Ge 1:5; 8:22, etc. The marked periods of this daytime were morning, noon and night, as with us. See Ps 55:17. The early hours were sometimes called "the cool of the day" (Ge 3:8). After the exile the day. or daytime was divided into twelve hours and the night into twelve (see
Day
The Jews reckoned the day from sunset to sunset (Lev. 23:32). It was originally divided into three parts (Ps. 55:17). “The heat of the day” (1 Sam. 11:11; Neh. 7:3) was at our nine o’clock, and “the cool of the day” just before sunset (Gen. 3:8). Before the Captivity the Jews divided the night into three watches, (1) from sunset to midnight (Lam. 2:19); (2) from midnight till the cock-crowing (Judg. 7:19); and (3) from the cock-crowing till sunrise (Ex.…
The variable length of the natural day at different seasons led in the very earliest times to the adoption of the civil day (or one revolution of the sun) as a standard of time. The Hebrews reckoned the day from evening to evening, (Leviticus 23:32) deriving it from (Genesis 1:5) "the evening and the morning were the first day." The Jews are supposed, like the modern Arabs, to have adopted from an early period minute specifications of the parts of the natural day. Roughly, indeed, they were content to divide it into "morning, evening and noonday," (Psalms 55:17) but when they wished for greater accuracy they pointed to six unequal parts, each of which was again subdivided. These are held to have been -- "the dawn." "Sunrise."…
The day is distinguished into natural, civil, and artificial. The natural day is one revolution of the earth on its axis. The civil day is that, the beginning and the end of which are determined by the custom of any nation. The Hebrews began their day in the evening, Le 23:32; the Babylonians at sunrise; and we begin at midnight. The artificial day is the time of the sun’s continuance above the horizon, which is unequal according to different seasons, on account of the obliquity of the equator. The sacred writers generally divide the day into twelve hours. The sixth hour always ends at noon throughout the year; and the twelfth hour is the last hour before sunset. But in summer, all the hours of the day were longer than in winter, while those of night were shorter. See HOURS, and THREE.
תִּפְאָרָה (tiph'arah) refers to beauty and glory, encompassing both physical and abstract qualities. It can denote the beauty of garments and jewels, the glory associated with rank or God, and even the honor of Israel. The term is built from the root meaning 'ornament' and covers a range of meanings related to splendor and majesty.
