Amplified 2015 Translator's Notes:
Literal renderings, alternate translations or explanations.

The "fear" of God is a common concept in the OT, but is difficult to translate into English. It is not simply a matter of "fear" in the modern English sense. Nor is it only a sentiment of deep reverence. It implies obedience, as well.
