Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 39. - Turn away my reproach, which I fear; i.e. "turn away from me the only reproach of which I am afraid - the reproach of transgressing against thy Law" (comp. ver. 31). For thy judgments are good. Right in themselves, and conducive to man's happiness.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(39) My reproach which I fear.--The word for fear is an unusual one, used in Deuteronomy 9:19; Deuteronomy 28:60, for very strong dread. The reproach may be either the disgrace in God's sight of violating His commands, or, as the context (Psalm 119:42) suggests, a reproach from men for keeping God's law.
