16 Whoever fear the Lord are afraid of nothingand are never discouraged, for he is their hope.
17 Happy the soul that fears the Lord!
18 In whom does he trust, and who is his support?
19 The eyes of the Lord are upon those who love him;he is their mighty shield and strong support,A shelter from the heat, a shade from the noonday sun,a guard against stumbling, a help against falling.
20 He lifts up spirits, brings a sparkle to the eyes,gives health and life and blessing.
21 Ill-gotten goods offered in sacrifice are tainted.
22 Presents from the lawless do not win God’s favor.
