# General Information:

Parallelism is common in Hebrew poetry. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/writing-poetry]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-parallelism]])

# the rock of our salvation

The psalmist speaks of Yahweh as if Yahweh were a mountain the people could climb so they would be safe. See how "rock" and "of my salvation" are translated in [Psalms 18:46](../018/046.md). AT: "the rock where we can go and God will save us." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])

# enter his presence

The psalmist speaks as if he is telling the readers to go into the throne room of a king. AT: "go to where he is" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])

# with thanksgiving

"thanking him as we enter his presence"

# superior to all gods

Possible meanings are that Yahweh is a great king 1) "who rules over all other gods," or 2) "who is much better than all gods."
