Psalms 85:13

Righteousness shall... — Better, Righteousness shall walk in front of Him, and follow in His steps.

Nothing is more instructive than the blending in Psalms 85:12 of material and moral blessings. They do go together, as experience, especially national testifies. In the same spirit is Wordsworth’s well-known Ode to Duty:

“Stern Law-giver! Yet thou dost wear
The Godhead’s most benignant grace,
Nor know we anything so fair
As is the smile upon thy face.
Flowers laugh before thee on their beds,
And fragrance in thy footing treads:
Thou dost preserve the stars from wrong,
And the most ancient heavens through Thee are
fresh and strong.”
