Bebe's interpretation
In this verse, the Lord's pleasure in His people is made clear. The "meek" are those who are humble and submissive to God, and it is they who are "beautified" by salvation. The beauty here is not about outward appearance but an inward transformation brought about by God’s grace. Meekness, often seen as weakness in the world’s eyes, is actually a sign of strength and humility in the eyes of God. The Lord takes delight in those who are humble and gracious, and through salvation, He bestows upon them a beauty that comes from His presence. This verse speaks to the way in which salvation changes us, giving us a beauty that surpasses anything we could create on our own. It reflects the inner beauty that comes from a life surrendered to God, one that is radiant with His grace and peace. The Lord’s act of beautifying the meek is a powerful reminder that true beauty comes not from external features but from a heart transformed by His love and mercy.
