Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holyb; for all nations shall come and do homagec before thee; for thy righteousnessesd have been made manifest.

JND Translation Notes

+
b
Hosios, not hagios. It is used for mercy, grace, and of Christ, as the One in whom all gracious qualities are concentrated. (Ps. 89.1,2,19.) In men it means piety and uprightness. Chesed is so translated in the Old Testament. It is in general the sum of qualities which suit and form the divine character in man, as opposed to the human will. what God gives as consistent with himself, his character, and promise. The "sure mercies" of David is expressed by this word in the LXX, Isa. 55.3; Acts 13.34. God alone possesses the qualities which entitle him to worship as a pious man would understand it. Hosios is used in this general way for "holy." see Note i, Heb. 7.26.
c
See Note h, ch. 3.9.
d
See Note, ch. 19.8.

W. Kelly Translation

4
Who shall not feara, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holyb: for all the nationsc shall come and worship before thee; for thy righteousnesses were manifested.

WK Translation Notes

+
a
The pronoun "thee" after "fear" is not found in the best witnesses
b
The Greek for "holy" differs in the MSS., the best reading (hosios) is that which implies mercy in God (or piety in men), and not what means separation to God.
c
The American Revisers rightly say all "the" nations; for they shall all come yet and pay homage before God, but this as the fruit of the manifestation of His righteousnesses or righteous acts, not of the gospel as now preached.
