    da-wid gar LE-gei eis au-TON pro-o-RO-men ton KY-ri-on e-NO-pi-ON mou di-A pan-TOS HO-ti ek de-ksi-ON MOU ES-tin HI-na mê sa-leu-THÔ

Exegesis

Within the quotation, the main clause is Prooromen ton kyrion enopion mou dia pantos {Προορώμην τὸν κύριον ἐνώπιόν μου διὰ παντός | pro-o-rô-mēn tón ký-ri-on e-nó-pi-on mou diá pan-tós}. The imperfect middle indicative Prooromen portrays ongoing, habitual perception, “I was continually seeing / I kept before me.” The direct object ton kyrion places the Lord as the constant focus of David’s gaze, while enopion mou functions as an improper preposition indicating personal presence “before me.” The phrase dia pantos, with dia plus the genitive, adds an adverbial idea of duration “through all time, continually,” intensifying the sense of unbroken attention.

The subordinating conjunction hoti {ὅτι | hó-ti} introduces a causal clause: ek dexiōn mou estin {ἐκ δεξιῶν μού ἐστιν | ek dek-si-ôn moú é-stin} ‘because He is at my right hand’. The preposition ek with the genitive dexiōn is an idiomatic locative expression for a position of honor and protective support “at the right hand.” The verb estin supplies the present reality that undergirds David’s confidence.
