“Those who fear the Lord will live, because they have put their trust in the one who can save them. Fear the Lord, and you will have nothing else to fear. If your trust is in him, you will never act like a coward. People who fear the Lord are fortunate, because they know where they can look for help. He watches over those who love him; he is their strong protection and and firm support. He shelters them from the heart, shades them from the noonday sun, and keeps them from stumbling and falling. He makes them cheerful and puts a sparkle in their eyes. He blesses them with life and health.”
Sirach
