I have laid help upon one that is mighty (Ps. 89:19)

Many Hebrew scholars feel that instead of the form 'ZR (help) we should read the closely similar term NZR, which means "crown." Consequently Smith translates, "I have placed a diadem upon a warrior"; and Moffatt, "I have crowned a hero." It may be added that the concluding phrase of the verse, "I have exalted one chosen out of the people," forms a logical parallel to the crowning of the mighty one.

Amen, and Amen (Ps. 89:52)
