Yahweh has punished me

"Yahweh has disciplined me"

he has not handed me over to death

The writer speaks of death as if it were a person under whose power Yahweh could place the writer. Alternate translation: "he has not allowed me to die" or "he has not allowed my enemies to kill me" (See: rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-personification and rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-idiom)
