The final affirmation that God will bless and all the ends of the earth will fear God closes the psalm with the vision of God's blessing extending to the entire world and resulting in universal recognition of divine power. The reference to fear indicates reverential awe; the ends of the earth will acknowledge God's supremacy. This verse closes the psalm with the eschatological vision toward which it has aimed: all creation recognizing and fearing God.
