Study note
Setting — The psalmist speaks in the first person while addressing God, positioned between a meditation on divine majesty in verse 5 and a call to extol God's goodness and righteousness in verse 7.
The words — The Hebrew יֹאמֵ֑רוּ (yo.Me.ru) translates literally as "they will tell," and אֲסַפְּרֶֽ/נָּה ('a.sap.pe.Re./nah) means "I will recount."
The thread — The verse connects to Habakkuk 2:14, which describes the earth being filled with the knowledge of God's glory, and Psalms 107:31, which urges thanksgiving for God's loving devotion and wonders.
Why it lands — The text requires a reader to acknowledge both corporate witness to God's mighty acts and personal responsibility to recount His greatness.
