Exegesis
The prepositional phrase meta tou prosopou sou {μετὰ τοῦ προσώπου σου | me-tà tou pro-sṓ-pou sou}, literally ‘with Your face’, uses prosopon {πρόσωπον | pró-sō-pon} in its idiomatic sense of personal presence, evoking direct, relational fellowship rather than mere spatial proximity. The English renderings preserve the temporal contrast between past revelation (“have made known / have shown”) and future experience (“will fill”), and they represent the idiom ‘with Your face’ with the more transparent “in Your presence” to communicate the sense of intimate nearness.
In context — Acts 2:28
You have made known to me the paths of life; You will fill me with joy in Your presence.
