17. And what will they do when the Lord begins to examine them?
18. Those who fear the Lord will not be unbelieving toward his Word. And those who love him will keep to his way.
19. Those who fear the Lord will seek the things that are well-pleasing to him. And those who love him will be filled with his law.
20. Those who fear the Lord will prepare their hearts, and they will sanctify their souls in his sight.
21. Those who fear the Lord keep his commandments, and they will have patience even until his examination,
22. saying: "If we do not do penance, then we will fall into the hands of the Lord, and not into the hands of men."
23. For according to his greatness, so also is his mercy with him.
