Where else “olam” appears- forever and everעֶדed
forever
Time that does not end, without limit of years.
Where else “ed” appears- will lead usיְנַהֲגֵyenahage
drive, lead
Drive, lead along (livestock, people); carry off.
Where else “yenahage” appears- until deathמוּתmut
Muth-labben
Part of the title of Psalm 9 ("Muth-labben"). Probably the name of a known tune; literally it may be "death of the son". Its sense is not certain.
Where else “mut” appears
Translation note
“Until death”: the last two Hebrew words are difficult. They can be read “until death,” “beyond death,” or as a single word meaning “forever”; they may also be a musical indication (like “Alamot” in Psalm 46).
The context
