Psalms 119:39

Turn away my reproach -The reproach which is likely to come upon me from being a professed worshipper of God. In all ages good men have been exposed to this reproach. Which I fear -Which I have reason to apprehend will come upon me. This may not mean that he was personally afraid of it, but merely that he had reason to apprehend that he was exposed to it. The prayer is proper, for there is nothing which our nature makes us shrink back from more than reproach. ComparePsalms 119:22;Psalms 69:9,Psalms 69:20;Romans 15:3;2 Corinthians 12:10. The word repreach in the original is the same which denotes shame or dishonor. For thy judgments are good -Thy statutes; thy laws. I know they are good.
