The upright see and rejoice The phrase "The upright" refers to those who live in accordance with God's laws and principles. In Hebrew, the word for "upright" is "יָשָׁר" (yashar), which conveys a sense of straightness or righteousness. This term is often used in the Old Testament to describe individuals who are morally and ethically aligned with God's will. The "upright" are those who have been transformed by God's grace and strive to live lives that reflect His character. The word "see" in Hebrew is "רָאָה" (ra'ah), which means to perceive or understand. It implies more than just physical sight; it suggests a deep, spiritual insight into God's workings in the world. The upright are able to discern God's hand in their lives and in the world around them, leading them to rejoice. "Rejoice" comes from the Hebrew word "שָׂמַח" (samach), which means to be glad or joyful. This joy is not dependent on circumstances but is a deep-seated happiness that comes from knowing and experiencing God's goodness and faithfulness. The upright rejoice because they see God's justice and mercy at work, and they are filled with gratitude and praise. and all iniquity shuts its mouth Parallel Commentaries ...
