19 Ps 92.3 NASB’s “resounding” not correct

NASB95: With the ten-stringed lute and with the harp, With resounding music upon the lyre.

ESV: to the music of the lute and the harp, to the melody of the lyre.

HCSB: with a ten-stringed harp and the music of a lyre.

NIV84: to the music of the ten-stringed lyre and the melody of the harp.

YLT: On ten strings and on psaltery, On higgaion, with harp.

Amp: With an instrument of ten strings and with the lute, with a solemn sound upon the lyre.

KJV: Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; Upon the harp with a solemn sound.

The Hebrew word is higgāyôn, meaning meditation or solemn sound. The TWOT says, “The basic meaning of hāgâ and its cognates is a low sound, characteristic of the moaning of a dove (Isa 38:14; 59:11) or the growling of a lion over its prey (Isa 31:4). It is sometimes used in mourning contexts, such as the moaning over the judgment upon Moab (Isa 16:7: Jer 48:31) or the whispering of the enemy after the collapse of Jerusalem (Lam 3:62). Wizards are known to whisper and mutter in their occult practices (Isa 8:19). In distress the psalmist sighs and cries out to God for help (5:1 [H 2]). [Herbert Wolf, “467 הָגָה,” in Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament, ed. R. Laird Harris, Gleason L. Archer Jr., and Bruce K. Waltke (Chicago: Moody Press, 1999), 205.]

Of the English word “resounding” ChatGPT says, “The adjective “resounding” generally means Very loud or echoing – describing a sound that is clear, strong, and often reverberates. Example: ‘The hall was filled with resounding applause.’”

Conclusion: the NASB95’s translation of ‘higgāyôn” with “resounding” is not correct.
