12
Woe to timid hearts and to slack hands, and to the sinner who walks along two ways!
13
Woe to the faint heart, for it has no trust! Therefore it will not be sheltered.
14
Woe to you who have lost your endurance! What will you do when the Lord punishes you?
15
Those who fear the Lord will not disobey his words, and those who love him will keep his ways.
16
Those who fear the Lord will seek his approval, and those who love him will be filled with the law.
