Psalms 22:23
Compare all
21 aSave Me from the lion’s mouth
And from the horns of the wild oxen!
bYou have answered Me. 
22 aI will declare Your name to bMy brethren;
In the midst of the assembly I will praise You. 
23 aYou who fear the Lord, praise Him!
All you1 descendants of Jacob, glorify Him,
And fear Him, all you offspring of Israel! 
24 For He has not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted;
Nor has He hidden His face from Him;
But awhen He cried to Him, He heard. 
25 aMy praise shall be of You in the great assembly;
bI will pay My vows before those who fear Him. 
26 The poor shall eat and be satisfied;
Those who seek Him will praise the Lord.
Let your heart live forever!
27 All the ends of the world
Shall remember and turn to the Lord,
And all the families of the1 nations
Shall worship before1 You. 
28 aFor the kingdom is the Lord’s,
And He rules over the nations.

Psalms 22:23

Ye that fear the Lord - A phrase denoting those who are pious.

Praise him - This is language which may be supposed to be addressed by the speaker in the great congregation. In the previous verse he had said that he would praise God "in the midst of the congregation;" he here speaks as if he were in that congregation, and addressing them. He, therefore, calls on them to praise and honor God.

All ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him - The descendants of Jacob; that is, all who are true worshippers of God.

And fear him - Honour him, worship him. See the notes at Psalms 5:7.

All ye the seed of Israel - Another name for Jacob Genesis 32:28, and designed to denote also all who are true worshippers of Yahweh.
