Psalm 128
1. The various blessings which follow those who fear God














Verse 1. - Blessed is every one that feareth the Lord (comp. Psalm 112:1; Psalm 115:13); that walketh in his ways. The psalmist assumes that true religious fear of God, and a good and holy life, will necessarily go together. The point on which he wishes to insist is that on every such case will rest God's blessing.
