Study note
Setting — The worshiping community addresses God within the temple context, moving from contemplating His loyal love to rejoicing over His judgments.
The words — קַצְוֵי־ אֶ֑רֶץ (katz.vei- 'E.retz) literally means "ends of the earth," and תְּ֭הִלָּתְ/ךָ (Te.hi.la.te./kha) means "your praise."
The thread — This geographic scope of God's renown appears in Psalms 113:3 and Malachi 1:11, where His name is exalted from sunrise to sunset among the nations.
Why it lands — The text declares that God's reputation and righteous actions extend globally, requiring the reader to acknowledge His universal authority rather than confine Him to local worship.

The Hebrew words

According to thy name, O God, so is thy praise unto the ends of the earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness.
