Isn't this a third ?

Hey ya,

 

I really just looking for a second pair of eyes on this one. I believe this is an error in the Rahlf's tagging and have reported a correction but that's rather a one way channel and I am trying to get through a translation on this so if anyone has an opinion on this I'd be grateful. In Psa. 9:32 we have :

 

32 εἶπεν γὰρ ἐν καρδίᾳ αὐτοῦ Ἐπιλέλησται ὁ θεός,

Now the word in bold is tagged :

 

Ἐπιλέλησται Epilelēstai ἐπιλανθάνομαι (ἐπί, λανθάνω) epilanthanomai (epi, lanthanō) Verb 1 sing perf mid indic to forget
--

 

It's a second perfect but I believe it should be a 3rd singular not a 1st.

Am I missing something ?

 

Thanx for your time

 

Thx

Don't worry - silly question - I should have a little more faith in my opinion sometimes - not too much mind :) The same form appears in Wis. 16:23 and there it is tagged as a 3rd.

Yes, it is a tagging error. The Göttingen Psalms text has it as third person.
