3 May the Lord bless you from Zion, he who is the Maker of heaven and earth.
3 The Lord that made heaven and earth bless thee out of Zion.
3 May the Lord bless you from Zion, he who made heaven and earth!
3 In turn, may God of Zion bless you - God who made heaven and earth!
3 The Lord who made heaven and earth Bless you from Zion!
3 May the Lord, who made heaven and earth, bless you from Jerusalem.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Psalm 134:3
Chapter Contents
An exhortation to bless the Lord.
We must stir up ourselves to give glory to God, and encourage ourselves to hope for mercy and grace from him. It is an excellent plan to fill up all our spare minutes with pious meditations, and prayers and praises. No time would then be a burden, nor should we murder our hours by trifling conversation and vain amusements, or by carnal indulgences. We need desire no more to make us happy, than to be blessed of the Lord. We ought to beg spiritual blessings, not only for ourselves, but for others; not only, The Lord bless me, but, The Lord bless thee; thus testifying our belief that there is enough for others as well as for us, and showing our good will to others.
