13
Sometimes I have been in danger of death for these things, and I have been delivered by the grace of God.
14
The spirit of those that fear God; is sought after, and by his regard shall be blessed.
15
For their hope is on him that saveth them, and the eyes of God are upon them that love him.
16
He that feareth the Lord shall tremble at nothing, and shall not be afraid for he is his hope.
17
The soul of him that feareth the Lord is blessed.
18
To whom doth he look, and who in his strength?
19
The eyes of the Lord are upon them that fear him, he is their powerful protector, and strong stay, a defence from the heat, and a cover from the sun at noon,
20
A preservation from stumbling, and a help from falling; he raiseth up the soul, and enlighteneth the eyes, and giveth health, and life, and blessing.
21
The offering of him that sacrificeth of a thing wrongfully gotten, is stained, and the mockeries of the unjust are not acceptable.
22
The Lord is only for them that wait upon him in the way of truth and justice.
23
The most High approveth not the gifts of the wicked: neither hath he respect to the oblations of the unjust, nor will he be pacified for sine by the multitude of their sacrifices.
