Psalms 102:15

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

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

Psalms 102:22

102:22 when the nations gather together,

and the kingdoms pay tribute to the Lord.


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).

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

tn “and the kingdoms to serve the Lord.”
