- Psalm 119:38 That you may be feared: as a result of the saving acts that the Lord does in accord with his promises, he is acknowledged as the one true God and feared (see Ps 130:5; 2 Sam 7:25f; 1 Ki 8:39f; Jer 33:8f). Another possible translation is: “Fulfill the word you have spoken / to the servant who fears you.”
