Psalms 102:15-16

102:15 The nations will respect the reputation of the Lord, 1 

and all the kings of the earth will respect 2  his splendor,

102:16 when the Lord rebuilds Zion,

and reveals his splendor,

1 tn Heb “will fear the name of the Lord.” To “fear” God’s name means to have a healthy respect for his revealed reputation which in turn motivates one to obey God’s commands (see Ps 86:11).

2 tn The verb “will fear” is understood by ellipsis in the second line (see the preceding line).
