4. Accept whatever is brought upon you, And be longsuffering when you passest into humiliation.
5. For gold is tried in the fire, And acceptable men in the furnace of humiliation.
6. Put your trust in him, and he will help you: Order your ways aright, and set your hope on him.
7. You⌃ that fear the Lord, wait for his mercy; And turn not aside, lest you⌃ fall.
8. You⌃ that fear the Lord, put your trust in him; And your reward shall not fail.
9. You⌃ that fear the Lord, hope for good things, And for eternal gladness and mercy.
10. Look at the generations of old, and see: Who did ever put his trust in the Lord, and was ashamed? Or who did abide in his fear, and was forsaken? Or who did call upon him, and he despised him?
11. For the Lord is full of compassion and mercy; And he forgives sins, and saves in time of affliction.
12. Woe to fearful hearts, and to faint hands, And to the sinner that goes two ways!
13. Woe to the faint heart! for it believes not; Therefore shall it not be defended.
